This was my first try at cutting metal with the Xcarve.

Any information you could add to this? I'm assuming this was brass? What was your bit? Feed rate? Any other pointers when cutting this kind of material?
I used an engraving bit and the default easel settings for aluminum. My lubrication was WD-40 that I would just spray on the brass every few minutes. I have found that a single flute bit works best with the Dewalt 611 router when cutting metal.
