If you’ve experienced long carve times with your 1/8” bits, or even had them break because they cannot handle the workload, then get ready for this wicked little bit called the “BADGER” The BADGER has been called “The little bit with a BIG BITE” by our fellow creators who tested it. For a 1/8” CNC router bit, no other 1/8” bit can match its aggressiveness and blazing speed for removing material from your CNC router project. With a 1/8 shank and 1/8” cut diameter, the BADGER falls into the roughing bit category. The BADGER is not designed to deliver clean cuts. Its sole purpose is speed, and it excels at it! Featuring a staggering 1/4″ depth of cut per pass, 80ipm plunge rate, 70% step-over, and a whopping 130 inches per minute cut rate, the BADGER is undisputed when it comes to rapid material removal from your CNC router woodworking projects. Comparing to other 1/8” endmills, the BADGER can remove material 10X faster than standard 1/8” endmills Comparison Between the BADGER and Standard 1/8″ Bits Settings Badger Std. 1/8″ Endmills Feed Rate (Ipm) 130 50 Depth Per Pass 0.25 0.0625 Stepover 70% 40% Plunge Rate (ipm) 80 20 Getting a roughing bit like the BADGER is not just about time savings. It is also about saving your other 1/8” bits for the finishing touch-up AND prolonging the life of them. By using the BADGER as your workhorse for major material removal, you’ll extend the lifespan of your regular CNC router bits. Let them handle the finishing touches while the BADGER handles the heavy lifting when a lot of material needs to be removed in fine details…like Aztec calendars.
