Hi Russ - yes, that is what I meant. I'm not totally familiar with the world of CNC machining but I know some machines have live tooling.
So in this application, you are using the centre dex drill to plunge the hole and then (effectively) using it as a boring bar. Is that correct? If this is the case then I guess the tool has to be indexed appropriately.
So given the same tool, I could do this on a manual machine. However, I doubt I could do it with a standard drill.
