I have a Thermwood c50 with piggy back cutters. We are milling saddles in 7"x7" beams. My cutter is a 4"x 7" straight mill. Right now I am making 2"x2" passes for a total of 6 passes to complete the saddle.
My question is that I'm only utilizing 2" of my bit. Would I be better off making smaller depth cuts with the entire 7" of the bit?
