Hi,
I need one of these,
They are used for cutting plastics and need to have a rounded head.
Any ideas as to where I might buy such a thing or have one made appreciated.
Cheers,
Rick

Ha! A ball ended die sinking cutter. Fond memories of using them to make dies for aero engine fan blades. Try a toolmaker - they may have some surplus. What do you need them for?
Replacing the cutter in a lens making machine.
Do you really need carbide tipped? Remember - the effective cutting speed in the centre is zero. Not good for plunging.
10mm dia ball nosed end mill. Try J&L Industrial
The shank looks a bit unusual - certainly not a typical milling cutter shank.
If it's for plastics, then I'd look to router makers rather than milling cutters.
In the UK, Trend would be a good start, They have a commercial division that does custom stuff. They also do a repalcable insert tooling system where just the loose carbide is custom made, so it works out cheaper. You could also get one from Clico, but it might cost more than a grand!
