As it is I feel obliged to use as much of the tool edge as possible on the long series ones to get my monies worth. Swarf goes everywhere. 35mm width of cut, 0.020" depth of cut 12mm 2-flute cutter, feed about 6" per min, speed what seemed right, Material 6082. The 6mm dia ones cope quite well profiling 20mm width as well

So there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Best regards, Swarf, Mostly!
