    Engraving Bits

    I'm looking for a good source for engraving bits. We are running a Vortech CNC Router. We have a HF Spindle and can go as small as ER20.

    What material are you going to engrave? Gerber makes decent bits, mainly for sign industry apps. And of course, Onsrud bits are fantastic.
    How is the learning curve going? I have a cnc shop here in Orlando, if you need any help with your machine let me know.

    THANKS

    I found a place. Have you been to Routerbits.com?
    We are doing great with our router. Learning something new everyday and just about have it paid off already!

    Are you running a Vortech? What are you using for software?

    I work in a sign shop, mostly using aluminum and plastic. I've been most happy with bits from micro 100 and onsrud
