Spindle Speed Spindle speeds are by router bit diameter 0-.5 inches 34000RPM .5-1 inch 24000RPM 1-2 inches 19000RPM 2-2.5 inches 16000RPM 2.5-3 inches 12000RPM
Turning Round This is used as the first step for all round spindles Two options when turning round Side Bottom Side uses a two-flute strait cutting bit Bottom uses a bottom cleaning bit The speeds and feeds are different for both
The Side option Recommend using a ½ cutter Step over is between 0.1 and 0.05 Feed rate is 20-50 IPM This is used when making small mortis and tenon
The Bottom Option 1.25 Cutter Used for roughing stock and tapering material Step over is between 0.5 and 0.125 Feed rate is 150-250 IPM
Turning Tool Profiles This program uses router bit profiles to turn shapes into your spindle Important things to know Spindle speed Which side to climb mill Feed Rate
Indexing This program is used for fluting and reeding Important things to know Number of flutes Start and end points Feed Rate
Rope and Barley Twist Important things to know Direction of the spiral Finished diameter Cutting depth Start and finish positions Router bit Diameter
Spirals Slightly different than Rope and Barley twist The differences Router bit diameter vs. Spiral pitch Cutting depth is very important
Surface Planing Planing burled wood Climb mills for the best cut No tear out 0,0 point is the lower left corner
Linear Cuts This is for fluting or reeding on flat stock 0,0 point is the lower left corner
