Harvey Tool makes dovetail cutter starting a 3/32" dia. www.harveytool.com Thanks for the tip. I'm still choking on the price though. Sure wish I had a vertical shaper or a BP slotting head.

Phil Given the price of the cutter I would like, I have been thinking that a good file as you suggested would be the least expensive solution. I will give that a try. Thanks, Wes |
