    Slot cutting tool needed

    I am using a 3 axis milling machine and I need to cut a groove that is essentially an undercut. Therefore I need a tool that is profiled to the right shape to create this groove.

    The slot I need to create is quite small. Where can I get very small/fine slot cutting tools?

    Thanks
    Jack

    I have made a drawing of the kind of cutter I have in mind. There are 2 pages to the PDF. The second page shows a rounded cutting area. This is preferable.
