After calculating RPM and cut depths by hand, I decided to put it into a
spreadsheet. It is located in the Math folder in the file section as "end
mill calculator.xls"
Inputs are number of flutes, end mill diameter, and avg chip thickness.
From this data a table is generated with different materials showing
recommended RPM, cut depth, and feed rate.
I hope other newbies like myself can benefit. Seasoned machinists'
constructive criticsm is welcomed in order to improve upon it.
