Carpenter Tech has some excellent literature on machining stainless.
I think you have to register to download it, but well worth the
effort.

I would also look for cutting lube made for stainless. There are some
unusual lubes for stainless including ones with iodine in them. Not
sure if any of them are especially good for machining stainless, but
Carpenter Tech should have the information.
