Hello guys

I making a diy router lathe i ve designed
i i would like to know if anyone could help me determining the right rpm for it

I know that in the proper lathe the rule of thumb is the number 9000 or 6000 divided by the diameter in inches so a 2 inch block should turn at 3000 - 4500 rpm

but in my lathe the bit will spin also so shouldnt i have lower rpm ?

Thanks in advance.
