| Hey everyone, I've got a quick question and I'm hoping you can point me in the right direction. I need a 4mm End Mill Bit (with a 3/8 shank) for a very specialized cut that I need to make into glass. I'm sure its going to be pretty hard to find a metric bit with an english shank size...so I suppose a 5/32" (3.96875 mm) bit would work as well. Luckily the cut only needs to be .08mm (0.0031496063 inches) deep so we're talking a very shallow cut (which should hopefully make the glass easier to deal with.) But yeah, I'm just wondering if anyone happens to know any good places I can order such an odd bit because I haven't been able to find anyplace on my own. Thanks a bunch. |

| I buy most of my stuff from US shop tools. They carry a bunch of unusual stuff, and if you don't see it in the cat they can get it. there are a thousand other suppliers on the net too, KBC, ENCO, Travers, etc etc. I love KBC too as their packages seem to arrive within two days, time after time, that is one tight shipping dept they have there. |
