Here is a short video I took cutting some pockets using a 1/2" 3 flute rougher in box store sheathing plywood to make parts for one of my customers. It is a long tool - too long for only a 11mm cut so it is singing quite a bit (might want to keep the volume low). But it is one of the bits that I got in my large Alibaba carbide order and I neglected to get short roughing bits, only 60mm cut length. It would be handy to have a few at 25mm cut length so that they can really plow through wood at max speed (800IPM currently set on the machine - but these settings are adjustable, so I will likely see if faster is possible sometime this year). These are throw-away pieces to be used as product demos with an inset piece of thin concrete set inside the pocket.
