Re: [Emc-users] Cleaning Carbide Bits -plywood gue.
Honestly we hardly ever have to clean our tools, but we don't mill much pitchy wood, mostly hardwoods and MDF. For us if a tool is getting clogged up, it is because it is too dull and is getting too hot, or the feed rate is way to slow and it got too hot. Either way it usually ends up in the bin. - Original Message - From: "craig" To: emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Thursday, April 13, 2017 12:33:11 PM Subject: [Emc-users] Cleaning Carbide Bits -plywood gue.

I use oven cleaner to clean carbide router bits and saw blades.

Re: [Emc-users] Cleaning Carbide Bits -plywood gue.
This is a common problem long before there were computers controlling the tools. I use 100% alcohol. But you can buy a solvent that is specially made for this from woodworking shops. http://www.rockler.com/rockler-pitch-resin-remover Either way, let the tool soak at LEAST over night.
