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

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.

This bit is a game changer

I've burned through a lot of 1/8" end mills cutting out contours, and went to a lot of effort to create over-size tool paths to minimize burning and bit-breaking. But this Badger bit has totally changed my CNC work--for the better. It really hogs away the wood efficiently, and even with an additional toolpath for cleanup, it's multiple times faster, while still keeping my more expensive clean-cutting bits pristine. Wish I'd known about this bit years ago.

“Badger” 1/8”

If it’s anything like the “Hog”, game changer. Cuts so much time off a carve! Forget ballnose bits for roughing, use the Beast”, “Hog”, or “Badger”! I need to experiment with time estimates if the “Badger” would cut down finish time estimates with a 1/8”BN for finishing,VS using the “Hog”. Excellent bits, IDC is my whole arsenal of bits. Keep up the RandD as your bits are changing the market.

It’s small but mean

Roughs out where the big boys can’t get, making finishing passes so much quicker.

It broke. Set it for settings they recommend and snapped high on the shaft in spindle
