From the video and some other references, it looks like the use of Trochoidal milling is the real technique. I have will defintely have to do a little more research on that and maybe give it a try.

I think it's an alchemy of the right elements and right mesure.
Trochoidal milling is the fundamental elemet, but you need the right chip load, the right ramp cutting .... I still need to study :-)

Same here. I was unaware of it up to this point.

This is so great. It looks like this way of cutting doesn't have many flaws, at least not compared to the old ways. Cheers for the video, Macwood.
