Feeds and speeds on a waste board

My experience drilling with Easel has not been great. It just sets up simple plunges that are a great way to burn your stock and ruin your bit.

I’d recommend Fusion or something similar to generate a deep drilling tool path. That will let you setup partial retracts to clear material and cool the bit, or a helical boring path for a larger hole. That’s what I did for my waste board and it went much better.
