Hi all been a lurker for a while but finally joined.
Not strictly a woodworking question.
Need to cut a 27.5" circle in 6mm aluminium,normally I would plasma it and then spin it in the lathe but the lathe won't spin this diameter.
This where I get all "woodworky" would a router do this if, I was to manufacture a circle cutting attachment and take light cuts of say 0.030"
I once made a daggerboard for a sailing dinghy out of half inch aly and routered a radius on the edges with good success.
It needs to near perfect circle as it will be in public view.
I have dewalt 625, await your wrath for abusing such a fine tool.
