I need to machine a square aluminium bar on one side such that it will sit flush with a 20mm OD stainless tube when placed parallel against the tube.
I am thinking of buying a 20mm diameter ball nosed slot drill (bnsd) and milling the bar using this to form a semi circular channel along the length of the bar.
Before I go out and buy the thing...
Am I right in thinking that if I eventually get the 20mm bnsd in the square bar to a depth of 10mm I will have a semi-circular profile in the square bar of radius 10mm and that this bar would then fit flush with the 20mm Od tube?
Hope this makes sense and thanks in advance for any help.
