Hello Anthomas:

How did you export the g-code from Eagle PCB? I can not find this function from Eagle PCB.

There is a plug-in (ULP) that allows the exporting of g-code from eagle.  I also use a neat plug-in plug-in called Eagle PCB power tools for importing gerber files.

I have included the links.

I've done PCB milling on a Sherline mill.   I export the g-code from Eagle PCB software and run it in Mach 3.  I used the Sherline 2800 rpm motor assembly and it worked fine.  I did have to make sure the speeds were down around 5 ipm to prevent the breaking of the small bits.  I have since gotten a 45000rpm air driven assembly for it but haven't yet milled anything with it.
