I have been working on a project to carve some paddleboats out of pine. I calculated the feed rate by calculating the chipload and I came up with a feed rate of 250 IPM. With my X-Carve I would have never tried a speed like that. I have been cutting away at 250 IPM with perfect results! Nice!

That’s one of the biggest changes we are finding. You can use the feedrates your bits are designed to use with XCP.
Also we are working on making that feedrate calculation process easier, was that something you just picked up looking around/past experience?
