where to bye tapered bits
im looking for some 2 degree tapered bits ( 3 degree max ) , as the main use of my cnc machine will be to make moulds for carbon fibre , i don't want square edges , too hard to remove from the mould ,
there is a lot out there with 1/2 inch shanks out of USA , or dremil size out of china
im looking for some fine carbide 2 degree taper , (small diameter)
and a set of large (tops out at 8mm shank )
round head + square in both sizes , and a pack of 10 for each ,
will only be cutting High Density Poly Etherline (HDPE)
do you guys know of any Australian distributors ?
or European , i dont like the cost of USA mail or the quality of China
cheers ken

I recall McJing having tapered bits but they are probably HHS which is actually sharper than carbide and suits plactics well.
Have a look at their site bottom of the pageCheers,

Yep McJing do have them, I purchased a small diameter bit with a 2 degree taper from them. I don't think it's a regular stock item. The bit I purchased was left overs from someone else's order. But I was told by them if you need any specific type of bit, they will order it, but from memory about 10 bit's or more, you need pay for a certain portion and the keep the rest for stock.
