Cutters for HM-50
The other day sunday went to local market and found a sutton end mill size 1 1/8 with threaded end for sale $30.00 dollars I think it is new the fella said that he had it said he found it in his grandfather;s shed he thought it was a tool for a router it's in the the plastic case I gave him the price he wanted, would this be to big for HM-50, still no mill yet but I seem to be finding tools for it .

Hi David,
Is it a straight shank or does it step down to 1"?
ER40 goes to 1"

You will have no problems using that with a HM52, it will just be holding it.

Unless you are lucky a second hand 1" clarkson is going to cost more than new ER40. I dont recall seeing a 1" clarkson with a 30 taper on it.(but being as I've likely only seen 2 doz in my life that might not mean much). Thinking about it some more, while the ER collets have worked fine on the small cutters I've used would*, 1 1/8" be asking to much?

*I think 16mm is the biggest cutter I have used in an ER collet and I'm pretty sure that was in wood
