I have a home grown mill machine made out of a broke smithy and a nice 12x12 xy table. I wish to convert it to a single purpose machine to drill flat bottomed 1 inch holes. They only need to be around 1/4 inch deep. The hole will be on the curved section of 4 inch steel round stock.
I don’t think my machine will handle a large endmill. Question is: what cutting tool to use, if this can even be done in my small shop?
