How this bit looks to you?

LowRider CNC Troubleshooting

Hi,

this is close up of the bit I used to cut those Christmas gifts! Trays! and while cutting the second but was already struggling a lot. It was new when I started. Chips were not dust, small cilinders I’d say.

Bit looks still sharp (at least to my not experienced eye) but there is some coating coming off?

Please share your thoughts about below pictures, coz I have no idea yet how to understand them :slight_smile:

Second picture on the right there are some more marks, is it the tip? Try to compare it to a new one, it should be more or less completely straight.

I’ll check. And this thing coming off - no problem?

I’ve got no clue. It looks weird though. Might also be glue or tree sap. :sweat_smile:
