That's the time to grind a HSS tool. I doubt that you planned to make 100s of pulleys in hardened steel. Carbide is over-kill for most of the things that hobby users do. Not that hand-ground HSS tools make calculating tool angles easy, though with tool grinder you would just be able to use the angle you set it to. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
