I have a couple of projects that require me to use a 1/16 inch ball mill with a 3/16 inch shank in my Porter Cable router. I have 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 inch collets for the router. Any idea if anyone makes a 3/16 collet for that router?
Alternatively, I could use a 1/16 ball mill with a 1/4 or 3/8 shank. Enco has a couple of suitable ball/end mills, but was looking for a bit more variety.
The 3/16 collet idea would be the best option as this would allow me to use more commonly available (sized) end mills.
If anyone knows of a good source for either a 3/16 inch collet for a Porter Cable router, or a source of end mills and ball mills with 1/4 or 3/8 shanks, please let me know!
I'm open to other ideas too if anyone has a suggestion. The specific task is cutting (pocketing operation) a logo into a wood plank. The logo carving will have some grooves/lines about .0900 inch wide by .1250 inch deep. I considered using a 60 degree V-bit, but don't really like the appearance, I need 90 degree corners in the pockets.
THANKS!
