Thanks for the information. I have been looking at the A2z on for a while, Also thanks for the information on 3/8 HSS, I may try your key stock idea and try to cut some, H have made some specialized bits out of drill rod, and made special holders to hold them in the standard Sherline holders. Was doing some fine work on some real thing stuff for the wife. (she does lace and needed things made) The stuff ALum kept breaking off with the large tools, so used 1/8 drill rod to make the tools was able to do it. Think of turning Alum around 1/16 in thick, inch and 1/2 long with a 1/4 inch head on one end and 1/4 inch contoured shaft on the other.
Try a knife tool for the thin stuff - works pretty good.
