I have difficulty with tiny stuff.
I want to cut a groove around a 1/8 inch brass rod, to accept a retaining ring. The specifications say the groove should be .020 wide. How do I do this? Should I just grind a regular tool bit down until it is .020 wide? Is there a better way?
I have to do 24 of these. This is on an old but pretty good South Bend 10K lathe.
Thanks for your help and advice.
