Thread: SX2P

Thank you all for your individual advice, much appreciated.

I generally only machine non-ferrous materials (hence going as large as a the16mm end mill).

I'll take all of this into account before I decide.

Thanks again, Steve.

Good Morning

I'm new on here & this is my first post, so hopefully have put this in the right section.

I own an SX2P & was wondering what is the largest endmill I can safely use in this machine?

I currently run up to a 16mm (gently) but was wondering what everyone else uses for facing larger surfaces?

I note that some people use small fly cutters if so what size?

Would it also be safe to use Arc-Euro's 25mm Dia. Indexable End Mill R8 (060-282-00258)?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer, Steve.
