[Exelanoz]

Hello fellow aussie CNC-ers.
I am from the Gold COast, first post here.
I am have almost completed my project, an all aluminum CNC router, it's about 90% complete. Need to do some wiring soon...

I would to ask for a suggestion as to where I should buy / order CNC router bits from.... for a reasonable price of course! I noticed this CNC thingy is turning into an expenisve hobby

I hope to post some pictures soon....

Anybody?
Did I say something inappropriate? I can't help but notice there have been 26 views and yet no one has suggested anything?

I am looking for bits to suit a max collet size of 8mm and less. I have a few smaller adapter bits for smaller shanks.

G'day,
If your after real small bits for fine work, dental burrs do a good job. Ask your own dentist to put them to one side when they are used rather than throwing them out.

Hello Fellow Aussie Members!

I have finished my machine a while ago, working very well...purchased a few expensive router bits, then broke them like a twig:-(

Anyway....I have come across some router bits for 19 bucks! Much cheaper than my previous ones. these ones are still not ok to break, although I have much less guilt in spending on these...:-)
Solid Carbide
2 Flute upcut or downcut in 1/8 or 1/4 or 1/2 cutting dia. and the shank sizes are 1/4 or 1/2.
I am very happy with them, been using them for acrylic, wood and aluminium
