Since nobody has mentioned it yet...

I just got done with my router table and have started using it. I was
wondering what to do when routing the end grain of boards to get a smooth
finish like it does going with the grain. Should I do multiple
passes......
feed the piece slower, etc.
Also I bought a Bosch router set, 1617 EVSPK, and was wondering how you
know
where to set the speed. It seems that the larger the bit, the slower the
speed and the harder the wood, the slower the speed... or at least that is
all the manual states. I"m sure it is something that goes along with
experience but just looking for a general rule...to get me started in the
right direction.
Thanks for all the comments and help.
