Just ordered another 10 1500mm min 1.5 deep in hardwood, and Australian Spotted gum too!

I've been using the HQMaster Up & Down Cut Compression Bits (1/8" Shank) on my 24x48 CNC to cut hardwoods like walnut and maple, and they've performed exceptionally well. The longevity is impressive, especially considering the price. Like any bit, they can break on knots, but I’ve found this usually happens when my speed and RPM settings aren't properly adjusted, not due to the bit itself. When dialed in correctly, these bits cut cleanly and hold up just as well—if not better—than some better-known brands I've tried. For anyone working with hardwood, these are a solid 5-star choice. Highly recommended!

Very good set of bit and at a great price. They worked very well in my CNC router and produced the results that I was wanting.
