Sample:
Nothing fancy. A simple tool to do a simple job.

I needed to cut a keyway in a pulley made for my Nardini conversion. I don't have a shaper or broach set.

I made this key cutter that fits into an ER32 collet chuck.
The round tool bit is held in place with a grub screw.
The mill has a locking pin to stop the quill rotating.

It sort of turned my mill into a vertical shaper.
It worked just like a brought one.
