Thank you, Tyler. The kind of things I was machining were from brass/nickel silver Nomad and Bronze? - #7 by Randy, PCB Model railroad track base, and now that I don’t have the Tormach any more, wheels like https://www.cnczone.com/forums/tormach-personal-cnc-mill/77867-distance-rings-post608383.html#post608383 also from nickel silver. Also aluminum, plastics (acrylic, acetal, a little PEEK), small pieces with small cutters generally-- 1/16" would be a large roughing cutter… And at work I’ve recently discovered 416 free-machining stainless steel and am interested in giving it a try, and I have a small sheet of 2mm-thick phosphor bronze that would make really nice N-scale steam locomotive frame pieces if I can machine it too…
