End Mill Question
End Mill Question
Turns out what I have been drilling with are not end mills, but just short drill bits. Are end mills better? I looked through the mcmaster carr site for them - problem is there is about 100 different options to choose from after you know what size you want. Does 3056A18 look like the right part?
end mills, from my small bit of knowledge about them, are machined much better than your standard "pick of the pack" drill bit. That's the extent of my knowledge on these.
Have you measured the bit you're using at this point and checked to see if that measurement matches the diameter of your delrin? I'm just a little confused as to how you're running into such a problem. I turn my tenons to 5/16 and drill my mortise and the stem fits. I've yet to have a problem fitting the tenon, I just hate cutting the things.
