i don't know why but i cant seem to find brad point cnc bits, do you have any links?
sharping is one thing i have yet to figure out, when i have got things sharpened they always seem to last half as long and cost alot. who do you use for sharpening?
i'm not new to the whole CNC game. i ran one for years at the last shop i worked for before going on my own. but the foreman always told us how he wanted it done and his ways always seemed wrong, haha. we always used a 1/2 comp for cuting out parts, and a 5mm down for drill peg holes. needless to say i just got that same CNC for next to nothing! up untill now i always had a local guy cut out my parts so i'm pretty good with tool path stuff. ill probably just buy a few different 3/8 comp and 5mm bits and try to track what last longer and if it is worth the money.
thanks guys
