I got hold of a couple long used resharped 1" dia shank ballmills real cheap. One is colbalt and the other is hss i think. I have a 1/2" capacity router spindle and need to make these 1" shank mills fit a 1/2" cap collet. :drowning: I have a 14x40 Lathe so I could turn them I think. What tooling do I need. I have a couple M2? square bits i grind to different shapes for stainless. Or do I need to grind the shanks? No have tool post grinder. These mills will be used to hog out foam and maybe wood not metal. Spindle speed would be 10 to 16k if that matters.
Any ideas?
