Default 3-flute and 5-flute measuring

wws fired this volley in news:15a1c7e4-2269-4d0f-9273-
:

Roll the cutter on a flat surface one revolution and measure it.
Solve for diameter.


Roll? A three-blade carbide wing drill?

You must be assuming all cutters are helical-flute millers. Not most of
these -- "ROUTER BITS".
