About Fly Cutters
Fly cutters are rotary tools that use one or more single-point tools for plane surfacing. The fly cutter is a single-point cutting tool similar to a lathe tool mounted in a special holder. There are many types of fly cutters. Examples include a point cutter, rotary cutting tool, and a rotary carving tool. A point cutter is designed for cutting densely populated corals. Its needle-like points helps to reach in harder to reach areas and precision ground edges gives a precise and cleaner cut everytime. A rotary cutting tool cut all fabric types up to eight layers quickly and easily without distorting pattern cutting lines. A rotary carving tool is used to carve on hard materials such as a piece of wood, carve through the grain, or even engrave a piece of blown glass. Fly cutters may also be a single or double fly cutter bit type. A single fly cutter bit type is derived from a machinist’s designs and is used in material up to mild steel. A fly cutter bit type is available for more stability and faster cutting, but are more difficult to setup. Other fly cutters are commonly available.
