This is what I'm using to cut the wedge pointy bit.
It's a 25 (1") dia insert end mill.
As you can see I only use 2 inserts at a time directly opposite each other. Trying to use 4 is a little too much for my RF30 mill.
I should mention those inserts are probably past their sell by date
I'm using 1550 rpm and depth of cut is 1mm (0.040") and the feed rate is (as fast as I think is should be ) I'll measure it
On the mill
The videos - done quite a few about 11 of which 10.5 are crap. But I'm slowly getting there,............... one would think at my age (33) I would be able to do a decent video
Any chance............... John (Doubleboost) you could nip over for a couple of days - bring your video camera and Debs
