Hi All. First post on this forum. Some interesting reading. I make scale farm model components. Does anyone have a suggestion for a suitable facemill for machining aluminium on a Denford TRIAC?

The Tormach facemill is 30mm Dia but has a half inch arbor and I cannot find a BT30 holder with a 1/2" arbor anywhere

Sorted. Found a Kennametal Dodeka facemill with positive inserts. 40mm diameter designed for aluminium. Best thing about it the supplier said you just pay for the inserts and the tool is free.

Hi Brian,

Sorry no-one could help with your initial query. Glad you sorted it out. It would be nice to see a picture of one of your models.
