I'm trying to wrap my head around all the feed's and speeds terminology. I have a 3/8" OSG (PN# 5350500) 2 flute, HSS end mill. Looking at their site it seems I am looking at running a .0375 step over at 23 IPM but that is at a depth of 1.5 x the diameter of the tool. If I am doing a pocket from scratch I will be ramping down about .04 inches, roughing out the pocket, ramp down another .04 inches and so on. OR do I just spiral plunge the whole 1.5 x the diameter of the tool which equals .5625 and rough the pocket? The second option would be BADA** since I've never done anything that aggressive (on purpose).
I am using a CNCed G0704 with a stock 1100 watt motor.
