I agree it should like a ten minute job.
People bitch about Fusion , but I like it, and it’s very quick to model and then generate tool paths.

Vfds are so cheap that you should buy one for each machine and wire them permanently

The only thing I can offer is try slowing down the feed rate and see if the Z keeps up. You can also play with the Z CAM. Sounds like you are using Fusion 360? Try plunging instead of helical ramping...

This mill is not what most people that hang out on this forum would need, that’s why you are not getting much interest.
That said , if it’s not worn out, it’s definitely worth 1000, probably more,...
