Thegap between teeth will amount to about 2 ^^4 cu. in. for eachtooth; thus ample chip space is provided for heavy millingoperations.

Cutters of this design after they have been ground in re-sharpening to a point where the teeth require reforming, arerecut and this process is repeated until the outside diameterhas been reduced to 3;>8 in., which means that only a 5/16-in. wall remains between the bore and the bottom of thetooth fillet. But even with this marked reduction in diam-eter, the teeth are amply coarse and the space between themsufficient to give satisfactory results. Fig. 5 represents the process of recutting a mill of thispattern. To all appearances the work is quite like a freshcutter except for the narrowing down of the land at the topof the tooth (which will of course be ground after the cutteris again hardened an
