Utabintarbo pointed out to me this morning that the 1/8 channel that the minimum endmill dictates is too large, and after recalculating (I made a sum error), it's apparent that there would be only 8 fins left (and 8 posts on the outer edges, maybe).
Really?!, my design is an 8fin one , would I be able to optimise for 8 fins, the ideal width of fin I mean?. or does it not work with a fixed amount?, I mean the amount is dictated by the optimisation?...

I think you could do it but not totaly 'free hand', if you made up a 'suport' for making straight lines maybe?, to keep the dremel upright and 'carry the line' so to speak...
You can get a gizmo that makes a router from a dremel can't you?, I wonder?...

Can you not afford to take this to a specialist like Cather did?...(I know I could'nt )
