In this video I revisit my previous look at facing on the Avid Pro CNC Router. I take your suggestions, tweak the settings, and show you the results!
I needed a solution for facing aluminum on my Avid CNC router. Traditional end mills are too slow, fly cutters can’t spin that fast, and spoilboard cutters aren’t made for aluminum. I reached out to Datron and they sent me their 0068444, which is a 2 flute 20mm facing end mill. The results were very good.

Learn how to build a huge 4×8 CNC router, the 4×8 PRO 4896 from AVID CNC! I’ll go over setting up dust collection for the CNC, getting the machine assembled, setting up Mach4, squaring the table and gantry, and tramming the spindle. In my next video, I’ll show the process of setting up the vacuum workholding, as well as a t-track fixturing table, so stay tuned for that next week!
