Ball Cutting Tool

Treated myself to a ball cutting tool for the lathe. Thinking of making some foot pegs out of aluminium bar so bought the tool from RDG Tools. Fairly pleased with the item, it said it was for Myford Lathes, though it didnt come with any attachment fixings, nor did the handle fit into it. There is no markings on it either, to tell you what radius the blade tip is set to, so I made some marks myself to get a general idea...


Going to have a play in Aluminium and then maybe try some Brass...
