Cutting perfect circles out of paper or cardboard can be quite challenging if you rely solely on scissors. Fortunately, this uncomplicated design makes it a straightforward task. I utilized 5.2 mm pertinax (phenolic paper), courtesy of a donor, which is remarkably hard yet still manageable to work with when using a CNC machine and a single flute end mill. Key parameters for optimal results include shallow cuts per pass and rapid cutting speeds. Don't overlook the importance of engaging a dust collection system as the fine particles can be detrimental to one's health.
