Question on choosing an endmill for a project

[GeneT45]

Look at amazon, they have Accusize face mills (linked here) at a reasonable price. I have a 1" and 3".

I have those in four sizes, ordered one at a time because of the mixed reviews. Each turned out great prompting me to order the next one. Well worth the price of admission, imo.

I like the Accusize equipment.

Awesome - Amazon will have a 1" to me later on this afternoon.

If I may, you will have a problem with the work chattering using the method of holding the work in a vise and running the cutter off center. Might I suggest this method. Thanks.

Yes, already had that experience this morning. I will try your suggestion.
