Mine was further up to the left (the straight part) of the cutter in your pic. Could be the angle of my holder. --- End quote --- Yup. The curved part is what's supposed to be cutting. |

When placed in the slot of the fly cutter, the top of the tool faces to the side. So the top is now the side in this orientation. --- End quote --- I believe that is the case. Think of it as a lathe tool. If you used a lathe tool as a fly cutter, you'd need to turn it on its side. --- End quote --- I took this statement of mine, and a bit of :proj: struck me. See the attached images. That's a 5mm dia. profiling tool on an 8mm holder. |

:nrocks: great idea is that the finish under the tool ? |

Yup. It looks rough, but it feels smooth - I'm assuming my lack of flycutting experience contributed to the look of it. BTW, that block is aluminium. |
