What is involved in converting my ER16 2.2KW spindle to an ER20 type?
...I didn't expect to use many 1/2 inch shaft bits at the time I bought it, and now I have one!
Alternatively, could someone reduce the shaft on the bit from 1/2" to 10mm? It's a large 45deg V Groove cutter.
It's basically not realistic. Since the ER20 taper is bigger than the ER16 you would have to get a new spindle shaft made, which is going to cost a huge amount.Quote:

Not worth the trouble you can buy a good quality TCT V cutter with 1/4" shank for £23. It would cost at least half this to have some one do it then you have the wait etc.!Quote:

Thanks Jazz, I've ordered one. I couldn't find any with a significant depth of cut with a 1/4" shank.
...now I have an expensive 1/2" shank bit to get rid of!
