I was looking at Grizzly.com and ran across some carbide end mills in 3/32" and 1/8" sizes...I guess they're meant for non-ferrous metals, but since ebony and the like is pretty hard, would they be good for cutting saddle slots?

John can they be run at the high speed of a trimmer or do you need to use a drill press or milling machine?
