Its looking like I may actually finish this project, was doubtful at first.
With some assembly it might be more clear how it will work. The tool holder rotates with the shaft to bring the cutter into the wheel with the set cutting angle and clearance angle.

Will add a stop to control how far the cutter swings into the wheel. With a different too holder it should work on drills and the end of end mills.

This largish looking knob adjusts the depth of cut by pulling the shaft and tool holder closer to the wheel.

Still need to mount the motor and speed control. Have a variable transformer, gives 0 -120 v, will give variable speed to about 5000 rpm on the wheel.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
