Default source needed - steel router bit v-groove

No. A rougher is a type of milling cutter. They have "teeth" on the flutes
to break up chips. They are used to rough out a shape before the finish
cuts.

No luck in the Yellw Pages but having some luck at Thomas Register. I

think. Not
100% sure if the companies I am finding are right, but I'll check on

Monday. Thanks.

BTW, I also found a company that makes "roughers" and burrs, or some such.

Designed to rough-up surfaces, and they have 60 deg bits, so I could use

the standard
router bit and then the rougher. That is now Plan B.
