Agreed, I posted a thread earlier about surface finish with a flycutter...same cutter mentioned above actually... Turns out that I did too good of a job tramming the head and the tool more or less stays in contact for a full 360 degree sweep leaving a "fuzzy" finish in its wake.
Before I start fly cutting again I need to very carefully knock the column a few tenths out of alignment (thats going to painful considering the work I did to get it aligned) so that the trailing edge just barely rises above the cut surface.
