alanwetherall,
just looked the Veritas cutter.....
what overpriced rubbish...looks almost home made...or a cheop Chinese copy found in the pound store.....
speaking of which u should make or adapt something else...
2 things
1, the drive spindle is to small dia.....it will eventually snap plus hit a bit of a tough knot and bingo, also vibration and wobble.....
2, How can somebody with their reputation use a bit of high carbon tin as a cutter.....
plenty of cheap carbide and HSS stock out there....
Dont bother, for a few quid a DIY engineer could make u up something a 100 times better.....
what did u intend to drive it with...?
shame I dont live local.....
