I took it up a notch and tried to mill a larger 3D part. I set it to feed at 3600 mm/m and eat 4 mm deep at a time so it moved pretty fast. First I milled the bottom surface, then I flipped it over and milled the top. I had to make four holes in the corners with the machine first to align the part when I turn it over. After a little sanding the leave is pretty nice looking. I have ordered a ball end mill bit which will eliminate the rough surface.
