[PROJECT] Clamp Knurling Tool

[EdK]

I started machining the knurl holders today following Tom's video as much as I can. He used a fly cutter to machine the holders so I decided to do the same, even though I've never used a fly cutter before despite having one for years. So I ground the cutter and gave it a try. I'm not sure if the finish I got is typical for fly cutters so I thought I'd post some pictures to get opinions from those that have used fly cutters before. There are ridges in the finish that I can feel with my fingers. I don't have power feed on the mill table so that might be the reason but I fed the table as slow and smooth as I could. I know it won't matter to the functioning of the tool but I'd like to know whether I'm doing something wrong with the fly cutter.
