At S2500 and 0.75" OD you are only travelling at 490SFM, way slow for machining Aluminium, that's for sure.
But hey, when the only tool available is a hammer, every job is a nail, right?
Hope it works out for you.

Very possibly correct - however I've been (apparently
) running 785rpm and I get a pretty decent finish with positive rake tooling, so speeding it up will only make it better, thats for sure - and reduce my cycle times too
Cheers!
