== CNC Milling ==
Our CNC mill is controlled by grbl. When your CAM software has an output option for grbl, use it. Otherwise, grbl understands LinuxCNC/MachineKit G-Code and you can use a setting for that.
If you have neither option, you can use a generic setting. LinuxCNC/MachineKit try to obey standard G-Code.
== Feeds and Speeds ==
* Aluminum
** 1/4" two-flute endmill, 1400 RPM, 4 IPM works well. Feed rate is limited by machine vibration.
