Description

If you’re tired of spending hours while you wait on your CNC router to remove material from your CNC woodworking projects, then you’ve come to the right bit.

Welcome to the aptly nicknamed "BEAST", a 1/4" hyper-speed CNC router bit from IDC Woodcraft, the ultimate solution for lightning-fast material removal.

With a ¼ shank, the “BEAST” falls into the roughing bit category. Even so, this bit will blow your mind with its unparalleled speed and material removal. Keep in mind that the "BEAST" is not designed to deliver clean cuts. Its sole purpose is speed, and it excels at it!

Featuring a staggering 3/4" depth of cut per pass, an 100ipm plunge rate, 80% step-over, (it is actually capable of feed rates as high as 800 inches per minute on floor-model machines) the "BEAST" is the undisputed champ when it comes to rapid material removal from your CNC router woodworking projects.

Designed with a thicker core and a shorter flute length, the "BEAST" CNC router bit is built to withstand rigorous workloads.

But it's not just about saving time; it's about extending the life of your other CNC router bits as well. By employing the "BEAST" 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 "BEAST" handles the heavy lifting.

 

Let the “BEAST” out of its cage on your CNC woodworking projects and watch how much time you’ll save!

Appropriately named bit!!

The bit is an absolute “beast”! Pun intended. I have hogged through material (hard maple) like never before. I intend to purchase a few spares since this bit is likely to be used on every project I do for the foreseeable future.

NOTE: if you have a low hp spindle, you may have to slow down the feed. The bit eats so much it stalled my spindle while doing a 3/4” doc at suggested feeds and speeds. It was eating away just fine for about 1/2” but the spindle couldn’t hold the speed so it stalled,, and that caused issues 😂🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m a newbie.

Beast Review

Just put the Beast to test over the past weekend and WOW, what a great cut! Completed a rough cut of a 24"x36"x1" 3D design in 45 min. Working on the final cut with the 1/4" tapered bit now. Excellent detail! Can't wait to see the final product.

Best bit I have purchased yet!

This bit is everything Garrett says it is. If you’ve watched the video of this bit in action, that is literally exactly what you’re going to experience on your own projects. I wish I would’ve purchased this bit long ago or whenever it was first available. I wish I would’ve known about it sooner. The very first project I tried it on it saved me so much time on the roughing pass. This thing literally devours the wood. Honestly, before you spend any more money on bits for roughing passes of any kind on any other bit get this one instead, you won’t be sorry. The specific bid I’m speaking about is the “BEAST” 1/4” hyper speed, roughing CNC router bit, 1/4” shank.
