Fly Cutter

[rbjracing1]

Wow! I would have liked to see that cutter in action! I take .003 cuts with my PCD and CBN tools on my mill with the 8" cutter.

Pictured are two cutters I have. The larger is 8" and I use it for surfacing heads and blocks. The other is obviously a typical fly cutter. I say off center because of how these are configured.

Maybe they are set up as a compromise where the cuter tip will be on center having a certain amount of tool stick out and more or less stick out will work also?

What I want to do on my homemade fly cutter is mill straight across the center for tool holding.

Suburban Tool makes a fly cutter that appears to be on center. You can see it in the link.
