    Seeing as I was on a roll ( well I had not broken anything yet )
    I tried making one of Randy Richards Dovetail Cutters
    It came out a treat but as it uses a 16mm indexable insert its 32mm diameter
    and the dovetails in my QCTP Tool Holder are smaller than that so, I made more cutters to take
    11mm and 9mm inserts so here is , "Daddy" , "Mommy" , and "Baby Dovetail"
