Don't forget to grind the toolbit the right way around for flycutting - a L/H turning tool is close.

The link to the photo clearly shows a ground tipped tool for flycutting. The text refers to cutting a slot with an end mill mounted in a collet. This is not flycutting with an end mill.

It never was meant to be flycutting with an endmill. If you look at my first reply I said "You would be better off" and then went on to say "The other end drilled say 1/4" for a round HSS tool (old centre drill or milling cutter) that can be ground to suit" which is what the link I posted shows
