Did you put an RFID chip on all of your cutters and drills?

So I popped over to a friends to borrow a carbide 3 cutter face mill. Alas the
MORSE Taper draw bar fitting wouldn't work with my R8 to MT3 adaptor. But the
more rounded cutters gave me the idea to use my green wheel on the carbide
brazed cutter I was usingin the mid size fly cutter holder.
Good idea. I'll have to try that.

Use a lathe face plate with 3 adjustable supports and an indicator in the
the center of the spindle, move the machine to dial in the face plate to
the machine motion. Then use a bar in the spindle to swing the indicator to
sweep the face plate. Same as Jon's procedure but without machining.

Years ago, we had CNC meetings at Roland Friestad's shop
near Galesburg, IL. He made CNC retrofits to sell to tech
schools, and apparently made some of his own tooling.
Thanks. That's a lot of inserts if you have a collision.

Mine is a standard shell-mill mount, and I mount it on a BT30 adaptor.
I think it has 8 inserts.

Round inserts are nice if you have the power and stiffness to use them.
Only in desperation would I use a fly cutter simple because of the
unbalanced load.
Because of their radius the round inserts will give a nice finish.
Have fun.

I have a 100mm dia face mill that I use for facing off castings. I
bought it used from eBay.
But my milling machine has an excess of torque and a dearth of speed.

I sell these in new zealand all the time. they work perfectly. I even run
them in my cnc. there are much better cutters of course but these
definitely work
make sure you buy alloy inserts for them they are polished and razor
sharp. I would think a apkt insert would be much better than a
I've been surfacing a casting that is larger than my machine envelope. Not
only that although pattern was 5/8" thick MDF the casting ended up with thicker
and thinner parts. With it shimmed and moving clamps around I managed to
flatten the bottom and then clamp it down and surface the top.
