Abstract

A fly cutter cutting tool is disclosed by this invention. The fly cutter cutting tool has a mounting shaft and a cutting base in a T-arrangement to provide a counter-balance. The carbide insert is attached to the working end. The working end has a rake angle to aid in clearing chips from beneath the tool holder and aid in the cutting process. The working end also has a hood to create a downward angle to deflect machined chips to prevent fouling of the work piece during cutting. The mounting shaft is attached to the cutting base at a perpendicular or a substantially perpendicular angle.
