    Thanks Olderdan for yet another (seemingly) simple, versatile tip!
    "-Dang, why didn't I think of THAT!"

    Changing the shear angle this easily will probably improve finish even more,
    also being able to cut up to a right shoulder, should that need arise...
    Sometimes feeding from the chuck can improve the finish even further.

    I'm already off to the tool scrap bin, where a few oversize shank brazed carbide tools sits.
    I'll just have to turn them down to fit!
    Up until now I've been using a 4x4 mm HSS sitting in a DIY-ed lo profile V-block in the tool holder for a shear tool...

    Cheers
    Johan
