FSWizard Reviews

FSWizard is handy, but the feeds and speeds don't match those on their website or hsmadvisor. So it doesn't give me a lot of confidence in the numbers.

My understanding is that speed is RPM * pi * tool diameter

When going from inches to feet, add a / q 12

For 24k rpm, 1/8 inch, tool return 170 feet/min
Correct answer is 780

Fusion agrees with the 780 number

Please fix

A new feature is center drill depth very nice but .......... center drills come in both 90 and 60 degree included angles. With no reference on the drawing we do not know with which we are dealing. Maybe you can add the nomenclature or note in a upcoming revision. And hint, hint have the feature to compute either in a further revision. Also you might reference the point length and angle. As you know by your advertised ‘tonns’ of experience - it is the little things in machining that are the biggest help! But overall a nice go to app and thank you!

I have just started to “thumb” through FSWizard., and what I have looked at in detail, gives me confidence in your organization, and it’s people.
This is layer out in an orderly fashion. After a bit more use, an upgrade to the pro level will be likely. Thank you all, again.

The most useful information in FSWizard are the feed rates associated with the materials in the material library. I wish the GD&T section was more developed but I do appreciate what is available, since it is a free app. Thank you this app!

Been using the product for probably close to a decade and I still use it. Immediate ROI. Best money ive ever spent on a tool for machining hands down.

Unreal good, everything I need and more for a manual lathe and mill with a simple to follow ui.

Works great for fast calculations on the shop floor. More accurate than my trig skills.

Best app for machinists, period... use it every single day.

This is a great app I use on almost a daily basis as a hobbyist machinist. Great apps are updated often to fix issues and have a free version to test out before purchasing the full version. FSWizard has both and has exceeded my expectations.

As a new hobbyist machinist, I do not have years of experience to draw upon or immediate access to experienced machinist for feeds and speeds. FSWizard takes the guesswork out and allows me to immediate pick feeds and speeds that will, in general work on the first try, for my Tormach CNC mill.

Savings up a bit before I buy the full version, the trial is enough to get me started, although I hope to upgrade soon. Will leave a follow review to the full version if I do upgrade.

Vet well thought out useful app.

Very helpful app, much appreciated.

handy for quick reference of drill bit sizes/taps/etc. simple and straightforward

Bought pro on my Android device, have used it for the last year +. Definitely an amazing starting place for feeds and speeds. I like it cause I’m always dealing with random materials, and the library is quite large. I don’t use anything besides the feeds and speeds, and of all the similar apps I’ve tried, this stands out as getting the feeds right the first time.

Switched to IOS and was having an issue getting the pro version downloaded, shot support an email, and within a day I was taken care of.

Highly recommended!
