Amazing explanation .... small tip for whoever wants to start using spiral bits - if you want to experiment a bit and see which bit is best for your application before laying down your cash and buying one, get some HSS end mills - they are spiral bits that are used in milling machines and fit just as well in a router ... they are CHEAP AS HELL and an engineering supply house will have all sorts of shapes and sizes ,so you can really experiment before committing to buying a more expensive bit
@lew94624 жыл бұрын
Differences between these bits/endmills are always asked by newbies in the hobby CNC world. You can explain it to them, but visualizing it with those slow-mo shots is worth 1 million words when you can see what 16k+ rpm cuts really look like. Too cool! Awesome man. I'm sending this to everyone.

I love downcut bits. I get that on the leading side of the cut you get fuzzing, but the rest of the cut is very smooth and clean. When if I stop before the edge, it is always covered or I square off with a chisel. Plus, I almost always plunge and when I cut though both ends have clean edges. Of course us woodworkers have our personal preferences, and it is great to have choices. Totally awesome vid sir.

@PiefacePete462 жыл бұрын
Great video on a little covered topic. It will become my "go to" source of demonstration, especially with the slomo's, when I am trying to explain why downcut is the way to go, even though it sounds illogical. One scenario that I don't recall seeing is a through-cut, where both the top and bottom faces are unsupported. For example, the workpiece is clamped so the cut is off the edge of the bench, and in the final cut, the bit is protruding above and below the work. An upcut bit will tear out the top. A downcut will tear out the bottom. A compression bit will produce beautiful clean edges, both top and bottom. That reads like Momma bear, Poppa bear, and Baby bear... never mind! Thanks for your stunning videos.
