Review on πŸ”ͺ Sleek and Precise: SpeTool Carbide Chamfer Carving Chamfering for Clean Edges and Smooth Carving Surfaces by Alex Montgomery

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Harder materials can cause instant tool failure

I bought two of these end mills and both tools failed at the cutting edge shortly after contact with the material. I was attempting to engrave 303 stainless steel at a very conservative feed and speed at a depth of cut of .010 and again .005 after the first tool failed. In both cases I used coolant. I suspect inferior carbide. The tool works well as a beveling tool in materials such as cold rolled materials, but on harder materials it does not have enough power to make simple engravings.

Pros
  • Milling Accessory
Cons
  • Expensive
