Hi Jody, The binding/purfling set from LMI is what I have.They are available in .010 increments. I really like them. For general downcut and other shapes, my favourite brand is Whiteside avilable from Woodcraft Supply. |

Drill City Bits. They dont have downcut, but they do have fishtail and upcut mills at low prices. I've had good luck with them. |

LMI and/or StewMac for binding sets if you don't build a double-lazy-susan setup of some sort, CETDirect.com for inlay end mills, Routerbits.com for whiteside routers of all shapes and sizes. |

Anybody know where you can get bits in tiny increments.. .01 increments would probably be ok. I have tried locally at places that carry Onsrud etc, but they don't seem to want to "bother" with me if I am only buying a couple bits. Anybody know of a mail order place selling bits like this? |

Most of my bits are from Jesada. Don't know if they will do custom sizes for a small order. |

Discount Tools is very good, though the web site can be confusing. Main End Mill page: http://www.discount-tools.com/endmills1.htm 2-flute mills with decimal sizes: http://www.discount-tools.com/endmills/3215all.cfm Up-shear wood bits: http://www.discount-tools.com/endmills/3935.cfm Brook |

Go to the End Mills section and scroll down to a pulldown menu that says Mill Diameter. They've got em in increments of .001" |

Excellent prices and selection on tiny end mills. Should work out perfectly for a couple of tasks. I am scratching my head a little, not on site organization, but on whether to go with coated bits/end mills, or just "plain 'ol vanilla" carbide. Anyone have a feeling one way or the other about: Solid Carbide Solid Carbide, TiN coated Solid Carbide, TiCN coated Solid Carbide, TiAlN coated Dennis |
