    CNC milling is a subtractive manufacturing process that uses a computer-controlled router or milling machine to remove material from a workpiece to create a three-dimensional object using toolpaths. Safety precautions when using CNC milling include tying back long hair, removing jewelry, always wearing safety glasses and ear protection, never leaving the machine unattended, taking light cuts slowly, and keeping near the emergency stop button. Different types of end mills are suitable for different materials, such as downcut spirals for acrylic, upcut spirals for soft metals, and compression spirals for wood.

    Keep near the EStop button in order to turn off machine quickly.
    Downcut spiral
    Good for Acrylic/Plastics
    Upcut Spiral
    Good for soft metals.
    Compression spiral
    Good for wood.
    Feeds + Speeds
    Feedrate: The distance the spindle moves relative to the time it takes to move along the workpiece. Units
    are distance/time, usually in/min or mm/min.
