    Default Feeds and Speeds questions

    I am using the Shark Pro CNC machine alongside VCarve Pro 6.5. VCarve Pro has bit already loaded in and I can choose from those. My question is I would like to get this bit here:

    https://www.amazon.com/Yonico-31210-...33&sr=8-6&th=1

    It is a 1/8" endmill 2 flute upcut bit. Can I just use the default 1/8" endmill selection from inside VCarve Pro for the speeds and feeds or do those need to be changed? Thank you.

    Default Re: Feeds and Speeds questions

    V Carve's default feedrates are rarely ideal. Different materials, and different machines, even different holddown methods can require different feedrates.

    I am mainly using poplar wood with the above mentioned bit. Suggestions of feeds and speeds or would the default be good from VCarve?
