    Tram the spindle as good as you can.
    Use corner rounded end mills.
    Get a more rigid machine.

    Thanks for the swift response.

    Corner rounded end mills sounds good. I'm afraid I need to ask what you meant by "tram the spindle" though...?

    That cut was made over a 9 hour period with no return to reference, so I think the registration, which I guess is the derivative of rigidity, is pretty good. Anyway, I'm not forking out more than UKP 5k for a machine!
