Safety

  • Never leave a CNC machine running unattended! If it crashes and you're not around to stop it, a lot of damage could be done to the machine and your workpiece.
  • Wear safety glasses and hearing protection.

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.
