Hi all,

I'm hours away from purchasing my first CNC Mill (Taig); however, I have no idea what bits I need for doing rotary engraving work.

I'll mainly be engraving onto Swiss army knife handles (polymer of some sort) as well as stainless steel and cheap trophy plates.

I seem to recall there were quite a few different angled bits when I had a rep demo a Vision machine a few years back. It scared me, so I stuck with my laser. :)

Can someone recommend a set of bits I should purchase? I'm getting the 6 piece ER 16 collet set; therefore, I'll be able to handle most bit diameters.

Thanks a bunch and MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

For engraving work, you will need a floating bit holder. (I found out the hard way) go to 2Linc.com. They have a nice selection of bits and a floating bit holder. I bought one four weeks ago to get some christmas projects finished. Works great.

Here's another source for rotary cutters:

Thanks guys!

I forgot about the 2Linc attachment. I'm glad it works well, I was wondering about it for $300.

Good source for the other bits too. :)
