@@KW-ei3pi thanks. I have made tools from 4140 in the past and it holds up very well. It is an industry recognized material for its impact resistance. And I happened to have the size I needed. It hardens very well and is great to machine. O1 would be fine as well. Either one is good for tool making
That cutter looks great. Very interesting,inspiring. Nice work sir

Well done! Need a tool, make a tool!
@@MyLilMule I looked at the cost of slot cutters and it’s mind boggling. It was an easy choice to make one. Gilles
Slick!!
@@WayneMacDonald1 tks brother
Nice. You could maybe make a bunch of these and sell them on your website.
I’ll have to give it some thought. Tks Michel
Very nice! How did you choose the material? What about using O-1 tool steel? Thanks!
