I’ve never used a slitting saw but will need to do so soon, using horizontal mills, and as always will consider tooling onhand before buying anything. We have many different blades with key slots which will fit the keyed horizontal mill arbors. Other slitting saws we’ve accumulated have smooth round arbor holes and I know that special, short arbors are available to hold those in vertical mills.
But is it possible to use the smooth round hole blades in horizontal mills? Would I have to make a custom arbor for that or what? Or “forget it, keyslot saw blades are the only option for sideways mills.“
