Alfonzo;

Here is the post for tool set up, speed and parameters

Also check out one pass milling and some of Pat Schmit's post on the filpper, and he plains the wax to the height and then mills in modela. There you can set up to mill past the bottom and get rid of the flanges I noticed in your casting.

Looks good, keep up with the jobs and the questions.

most all the time I use a 10 deg. 010 tapered ball end bit at full speed finish path (one pass cutting) ..If I'm cutting deeper then 5mm I'll slow it down a little maybe to 8-12 mps I don't worry about any other speed feed rates full throtle all the time is all you need with these bits they don't break.....anyway that's how I run my mill, may not be good for anyone else...
