Even though I have had my Bot for a while, I am just now getting time to start giving it a proper workout. As part of that effort, I have been searching for some new bits to add to my collection and came up with what is probably a dumb question - but here goes anyway....

As I searched through several vendor websites for "Endmills" including Osrud, Centurion, and others, I noted that most if not all appear to be designed for metals - both ferrous and nonferrous. Virtually none appear to be designed for wood/composites. Are standard solid carbide endmills - upcut/downcut/compression/finish/rough/etc. usable with the bot and wood/wood based products or should I shy away from all endmills not specifically referencing wood? If they are wood-friendly, are there any rules of thumb or do/don't? Any insight would be appreciated.
