As for the endmill - I haven't looked yet, but I (hope) I can find one to mill 1/2" deep. The .59 dimension is the overall block height, but .09 is the base thickness, so the talles pins are .5" high. I'm working on it now though, and that height might get dropped a little bit.
Anything under 1/8" is difficult. I think the 1/32" through 1/8" on this page http://www.rlschmitt.com/Standard%20...nd%20Mills.htm all have .5" of vertical cutting area. I am not sure what the quality is but for this size it will be hard to be picky.
