I don't know why this seems so hard to find? It seems like they are fairly plentiful as High Speed Steel multi-flute milling cutters for metal, but not in carbide like a router bit?
I did find some, but the shank sizes were weird. 8mm would be ok, but at that shank size the cutter is only 8mm too, so depth of cut can't be much. Beyond that diameter, the shank size increases with the cutter diameter in 2mm increments up to 20mm. That doesn't work for hand-held routers. Only ER collets could use something like that.
Maybe some of you have figured this out and I'm just missing it.
Suggestions?
