Hi all, hope everyone is doing well!
Brian, I have a Porter Cable 890, variable speed (10,000 - 23,000) I have done some engraving in aluminium and was
very please with the results. If I remember correctly I ran the router at 15,000 to 17,000 RPM, and 1 - 2 IPM. I use a 1/4" vcarve
bit. I did have a flat blade engraving bit but I use the vbit just to test everything. Like I said I was very impressed with the results.
I later done a Warning plaque for my neighbor and again the results were very good. However I did find that there are differences
in Vbits. On the second engraving I was using a differant bit and the results were not quite as sharp.
I really did not do much to get the results. Hope this helps some!!
