    Secondly I need a round-over bit for the same materials. Probably got more use for aluminium on this one.
    This is what I use for both wood or aluminium from Wealden tools.

    This for rounding over in wood, it will do Ali but you need to go carefull with several pass's and have stiff machine other wise you'll get chatter.

    For milling alloy, I get my corner rounding bits by getting a re-sharpening Co' to grind old cutters up.

    I use these : http://www.lmcuttingtools.com.

    My last one, a 10deg corner from a 12mm 3 flute cost me £12ish !
