Depth of Cut and Flute Length
If my endmill has say a 0.5" flute and I'm cutting 0.1" depth of cut per pass, is it ok to go as deep as say 1" since the top half is already cut?

You can, as long as the flute dia. is the same as the shank dia. and you don't do a finish pass at full depth. fyi, Some software adds the finish pass automatically in the roughing cycle.

I just learned about finishing passes today, never used them before. Makes sense.
