Default d bit cutters

Hello everyone
I'm twistdrill from Australia. I'v got a 9" hercus lathe and I would
like to make
silver steel D bit cutters and possibly a dovetail cutter. I once saw a
web site that showed you how to make them but can't remember it and I
didn't have the lathe then.
Can anyone give me some advice on this matter or point me in the right
direction?
From the dovetail cutter, what I remember is you drill 4 equally spaced

holes into the face of a piece of round silver steel(drill rod)cut out
and file the relief angles but that's all I remember. No specific
details or angles.
Any help or advice would be greatly appriciated
with Kind regards
Twistdrill
