I have a rush job notching the ends of some stanchions for 1.125 tubing. I am looking for tooling recommendations. I am using a manual Bridgeport and was considering the option of plunging with a hss annular cutter or entering from the side with a 1.125 roughing end mill. Cost seems approximately the same. My concern is folding over the roughly .040 to .050” wall tubing with the rougher. Annular cutters don’t mind interrupted cuts as long as the fixture is solid, I think. I think the tougher may work but have a tendency to push the thin wall open rather than bite. Open to all suggestions.
Thanks
