Inserts are described by nose radius, not nose diameter, whereas milling cutters are described by diameter. Though, the pedant in my would like to point out that in lathe mode you can already double/halve one axis when switching to diameter mode. But that is a different issue. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
