Hi All: Here's a question esp for the XY routing table folks. What's a good 'dremel' tool to survive the side loading of engraving on alumnium? I want to make face plates for electronics enclosures, so text, numbers, outlines etc. That means small end mills and high RPM's. Maybe even nameplates and the such. I'm designing a clamp on mechanism to allow me to mount a 'dremel' tool shotgun on my z pillar and just vary the z axis like +/- 100 thau at most. But that side loading seems to me would tear a dremel apart.
I see the XY table crowd uses them. What approach should I take? The $30 special from Horrible Fright and just blow through them? Or sink $100+ into something that will last me more than a few projects? Your thoughts?
