| Darren:
I wanted to make a large fly cutter, this one will sweep about 6" Starting with a blank of alloy to be faced and trued up Two sides faced and then fitted to my slitting saw arbor to machine the circumference true. A new end cap needs to be made. The start of the new end cap, machined one end down to 1" Fitted in a collet and turned around New end cap finished All that needs doing now is to mount the cutting tool bit ... |

Hi Darren ,and happy new year A large fly cutter is some thing i to could do with ,,what are you going to use for the cutter? i have a good few TCT tips with no tool to fit them i was thinking of using them on a single point fly cutter ,well when i come up with away of mounting them. Regards Rob |

Hi Rob, The plan is to skim a cylinder head at some point. I'm not sure yet if this cutter will be big enough, if not I will make a bigger one as only the alloy disk needs to be re-made. But I think this one will just about do. Now got to think of a way to mount the cutter, might have to be at an angle to gain a larger throw. Shouldn't be too difficult once I have put some thought into it :smart: Happy new year to you and all too :beer: |
