CNC Bits in Metric for Shopbot

[alicedowntherabbithole]

I run a Shopbot in Europe and I am searching everywhere for router bits in metric, specifically, 3 mm ballnose bits with long shanks.

I simply can not find this. At this point I would purchase in England or the US if I could find them.

Onsrud doesn't have ballnoses in metric.

Any ideas?

Hi Anna

Trend do 3mm http://www.trend-uk.com/en/UK/product/S59_3X3MMSTC/3/25/ball_end_spiral_cutter.htmland and 6mm http://www.trend-uk.com/en/UK/product/S59_6X6MMSTC/3/25/ball_end_spiral_cutter.htmlballnose bits, over this length you are pushing your luck unless you are cutting foam.

Contact Trend http://www.trend-uk.com they may have a dealer near you.

Or try this guy http://stores.ebay.co.uk/gep30574
I have bought some really nice cutter fom him at the right price.
