Hello All...

Anyone have experience using drill bits on the ShopBot?

Working on a design where I need to drill multiple holes and hoping to add a drilling operation CAM setup.

Is it possible to use standard twist bits in CNC with the RPM set appropriately accordingly (~3000-4000, depending on bit diameter)? I'm using Fusion360 for CAD/CAM. The software supports drilling but want to know about the hardare.

Also, does anyone have a recommendation for constant shank diameter drill bits? For example, a 1/8" drill diameter with a 1/4" shank diameter?

Thanks in advance for any help!
