Default fa - nice metric? facemill - 4 inch diameter

I'd look up the wkh inserts.

Sure didn't seem like diamonds, more rectangles or squares. Hum.
Might be nice, but some of the screws are just locks. One set might
be depth adjustments for calibrations.

those inserts are trapezoidal - if not a "diamond" shape, there may be
another name. you are right that some of the screws are locks, but it seems
you can adjust (separately) the height and diameter of each cutter, possibly
also the angle. And there are some screws that don't seem to do anything
but they must be there for some reason. Depth of cut is adjusted with shims
placed undeneath the cylinder that holds the part that holds the cutter.
This thing certainly has a lot of parts for a facemill - that's all I can
say about it.
