I wish to mill some long fluted rods of a decorative nature (precision is therefore not so important a factor), but before I buy any accessories I thought I might ask about any alternative methods.
My original plan was to buy a dividing head, as it would allow a large number of flutes and come with a chuck and dead centre.
The stock I intend to mill is between 30 and 40 millimetres in diameter and 500 to 800 millimetres long stainless steel.
What would be best for this job?
