How much of this groove do you need to make?
One time? Or
production?


Can it be done by using a 45° vee bit and a
standard plunge bit ? You might be able to
regrind the angle of a 45° champher bit and cut
the pilot off and use it to angle the sides of
a 3/8" groove .

Snag, are you saying do it in two passes? I like
that
idea as it will solve the chip interference action
when
done in one pass.
