I was testing some 2d adaptive tool paths on piece of scrap plywood; I used cheapest aliexpress end mills that i could find. 6 mm bit was pretty sharp and didn’t leave any tearing at the edges. 3.175 mm did much worse job at not chipping the sharp edges and left a pretty bad tearing, but this could be removed easily with a sandpaper.
