I am designing CNC machine , I want it to cut steel and wood , so I have the classic problem of "fast enough for wood but slow enough for steel" So far what I have will hold up to 10mm 3/8" and top out at 12,000 Rpm at a maximum speed of 105 or 150 inches per minute depending on if I decide to build it for speed or precision , AND still slow down enough to be useful on steel AND be something I can make. I don't mind using 3 or 4 flute routers exclusively if necessary. I will be mostly cutting hard wood plywood . do these numbers sound reasonable ?
