Alan,
at the risk of further uncalled for remarks about having
more than everyone else's alloted time- and what to do with it,
Professor Chaddock made a MillDrill on a mangle of a Drummond lathe.
He then set off to make an model aero engoine from solid and found
that the 1/10th milling cutters were crippling him in replacements so
he made them on the Quorn.
He confessed that he could not actually re- sharpen them but making
fresh ones is more ideal.
I wont be at the next ME Exhibition. One it is too far and two, I am
ancient at 77 and have seen it all and three, I have property to check
on in the North of Scotland and four, I am far from well from having a
bug having been in France, HongKong and Dubai in the past few weeks.
And secondly, I am too mean. I have no doubt that the SMEE will be
there and if not, there will be plenty of Quorn constructors and 14BA
folks to question.
Shooting off to a further tangent, my mate who has a hybrid Stent with
Quorn overtones has fitted a Dremel into the space occupied by the
Quorn spindle.
I think that this unpunctuated answer will suggest the way to go.

What you need is "Wampum".
According to Flanders and Swann, it will satisfy your requirements.

Please log in for more thread options 'Merde. Merde' Which is Flanders bit of it!
I did say that I had been in France!
Wampum is a collection of beads. Here, I believe that I drew one!
If you wish to play further 'silly ar$$es' wasn't it Holzapfell that
wrote of using Hippopotamus hide for grinding and polishing purposes?
This brings us back to Squaws on hides and they decorated with wampum!
Don't play puns with me- sunshine!
