    Tried both climb and conv with very little difference, I just use a dyson and dust boot.
    Chip clearance is not perfect but I've also fully cleaned parts down and done 2 opps to try and get better finish.

    I use single flute cutters from 1mm to 6mm with compressed air to clear chips out of the cut, it also cools the work and the cutter, if you use a big hypodermic with the point ground off as a nozzle it doesn't take much air and you can get the nozzle pretty close to the action,

    You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D
