Adam’s Tips
These bits are meant for industrial application and must be treated mean to be kept sharp. This means they will need to be feed at a high rate so that the bit does not overheat or collect residue. Alternatively, drop your spindle speed to ensure a consistent chip load.

3 Flute straight chip breaker
A newby using cnc router to cut out parts for toy cars and trucks, etc from 12 & 19mm pine. Tear out a problem with 2 flute 3.175mm upcut bits supplied with router, saw a note somewhere about this bit, read up Adam's tips on how to use it properly, bought a couple, much better result. I do realize that pine is the issue here, nonetheless this tool does make a much better fist of cutting it.

6mm 3 Flute Chipbreaker
Using on my upgraded Bluey, this bit flies through hardwood with ease and leaves a great finish. Perfect for jobs when you need fast cutting, a good finish, and don't have time to swap from a rougher to a finishing bit. This bit will satisfy those needs.
