Working on my South Bend 9C

if it is a matter of a single end mill, it will cost me more to mail you one for free than for you to buy one from Amazon etc.

and if you are really worried, you can use a carbide blank - even without grinding _any_ edges. The square corners cut poorly, but can cut 😉

The offer is appreciated! Thankfully I had a duplicate bolt, just needed to look better 😉

....... sheesh, with just a little bit of planning I am sure you would have started the first flat in the right place..... once that's done, the other three follow. I trust you have the proper left and right hand wrenches? One to tighten and the other for loosening and left hand threads........ 😉
 
........ and he calls me a sh!t disturber..... 🙄

I trust there's a story in there somewhere, I also suspect that its telling will land him in the penalty box again. 😉😛
Two counts of trespassing, two counts of peacefully resisting arrest, a ticket for my trailer registration expiring in 1937, a trip to a cell overnight, truck impounded and this all took place Dec 22-24. Impound lot was closed by the time I got released and back to town, so had to get it the 24th. Had to call a bail bondsmen to call the office for me as I couldn't call anyone from the jail

Long story short as they say but that's the highlights 🙄

Oh and they take your US money and give it back to you as a cheque, which I can't cash 🙄
 
I'd buy one! And probably cut it down to size like the others I have! I've been using an adjustable wrench fine enough, but I prefer having the right tool set up beside the parts.
