That makes sense Tom, I'll have to remember that in future. I used an insert shoulder mill for this second part, which was only possible after I got the spigot in place. The first one I scribed the radius and cut the bulk off with an angle grinder. Plunge milling is very laborious without a quill, a problem that will be solved once this project is complete!
