Carbi-Tool Australian router cutter supplier in UK?

[David C]

Does anyone know if there is a supplier for carbi-tool router cutters in UK please?

I always found them good for small sized cutters,
i.e. 1.5 to 3.2 mm

Dave,

That's the one, thank you very much.

I used to enjoy ordering carbi-tool router cutters in the past due to the exceptionally seductive voice at the other end of the line, (pre Datapower).

Also wish to add that I got excellent service from Wealden today, who stock 1.5mm 1.6mm 2.0mm & 2.5mm at very reasonable prices.

Freephone 0800 328 4183.

best wishes,

Talking of cutters, today I found a 1/4" HSS engineers' end mill in my router cupboard. I can't recall now why I bought it.

I think I was going to machine tufnol with it.
I would assume it will do the job, so can any engineers out there tell me if this is so.

I have used these cutters for hardwoods, as they cut beautifully clean mortices. Then again, is this what we really want for a good joint? Maybe so with today's better adhesives.

Worth a thought or two, when I have to machine wood.
