Hello, I hope I post this thread in the right place. I have this project, need to make 3D item about 8cm x 8cm. The material is jewelry wax. The model is a cross. Theres a similar image of the model attached in the thread. My question is what should be the max revolution per minute of the motor so that the wax wont melt. And what kind of bits will be the best for wax working. I have this CNC Router High-Z 1000. ps. I got my Router for about few months already and dont have much experience yet, hope you will be able to help me. Thanks! |

| Liat, The Kress spindle in the picture you posted runs 10.000 – 29.000 1/min. http://tinyurl.com/23cdnvb If that is what you have you should run it between 10Krpm to 12Krpm and a feed rate up to about 1200mm per minute safely with the cutter I suggested. Set the initial feed rate for the first plunge to 150mm per minute so you do not overload the cutter and break it. Jeff...
