I'm looking at the water cooled spindle specifically for its lower RPM capability in order to cut aluminum, but there doesn't seem to be much activity with people talking about the spindle. There are very few specifications on the website, but I did receive this response:
The water cooled spindle goes from 1000 to 24000 rpm.
Is there anyone using the water cooled spindle to cut alumimum? Successful? Better than using 1/8" and 1/4" single flute bits at 8,000 RPM (that's what we currently do with our Bosch router).
I'm worried that the spindle will have very low power down at 1,000-4000 RPM and thus no improvement.
Anyone have other suggestions for cutting aluminum well?
