Thanks for the info on online advisor Tom, it seems to be just what I need, we are already good friends, but have yet to explore the full depth of our relationship (if you know what I mean). :)

Whether you can sensibly specify a constant surface speed as such may be academic. Carbide tooling requires a fair bit of heat in the chip to work properly, particularly for hardened materials. If you can get the chips to break up as they form, you may not be far off from where you need to be. This often requires increasing the feed per rev.
Sorry Muzzer, I was a bit slow to reply, good info though.....
