What kind of motors do large CNC metal milling machines use? I know they operate at very high RPM, but what kind of horsepower do they put out? Would a regular router motor (2-3hp) be able to mill steel?

Started in 1968 by my father and currently run by my brother Rob. Small town jobbing shop built around the fishing industry. Built on the traditions of quality, fast work done at reasonable prices. My father built this business by trusting in the word of his customers. The stories and experiences of the time I spent in this shop are my fondest inspirations. I got into teaching in hopes of imparting to my students some of the knowledge my father passed onto me. My father is a great machinist. Rob carries on the tradition. Drop in and visit when you are in Prince Rupert. My dad turned 80 in 2008.
