    • All tools within the library. Feed rate and spindle speed based on library

    • Do not edit Feeds and Speeds in this area since it will change the tool library for everyone.

  2. Adding a new tool for a job can be very useful. It may be a customer supplied tool or it may need a custom feed/speed for the job. Add the tool to the job itself and not the tool library unless we will continue to use the tool
