End Mill Sharpening of Helical Flutes

I have found a way to sharpen the helical flutes of End Mills and Slot Drills using a Dremel grinder attached to my Mini Millert plus a few gizzmos I made.

If anyone wants info and or photos I can supply but the photos are more or less self explanatory.

Tony

I am interested Tony...

Hello Andy

Thank you for your interest.

I have only just joined this forum and still a bit green as to how it works.

I have tried to create an Album of photos associated with my membership. The photos attempt to show how I achieved the sharpening procedure.

If you need further explanation you can ring me on ****************** (Edit by PM)

Regards

Tony

Hi Tony,

Unless that is a throw away phone or you like scammers etc. I would not publish it's number on the internet.

Either delete the post or ask Neil or one of the other moderators to delete it. You can send private messages to members using Message Member under their post.

If you have added the photos to an album you can insert them into posts using the camera icon on the edit box. They will then be shown inline in the post.

I just looked at all your pictures, looks like a good idea, could be a perfect use for the worn out old ML2 I inherited. I wonder if it would be possible to do the side flutes on the lathe too. Mount the cutter between centres, Fix the finger to the cross slide, dremel to top slide, then move the saddle to grind the flute.

Hello and welcome, just reported it to admin for you, using the little flag icon at bottom right of your post.

For future reference, the way this forum works, it  is that one can only edit a post for a short period of time; it's not ideal but mods are friendly and helpful on here.
