Tooling Available
There are a few bits we keep in stock:
- 1/4 Endmill
- 1/8 Endmills
- 60 Degree V-bit (1/2" shank)
- 90 Degree V-bit (1/2" shank)
We also have many bits with 1/8" shank size. Most of these are only appropriate in the Fireball V90 CNC, but can be used in the others with a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter. If you use these adapters, be very cautious as they can't stand up to deep cuts and can slip out of the router.
