Mitering with Rotabroach cutters?
Is anyone using Rotabroach cutters for mitering? At the moment I use fine-pitch holesaws, just started using them on a horizontal mill instead of a notching device, and they're very good, but wondering about something a bit more durable.
The Rotabroach cutters look easy to get hold of, and can get an arbor to hold them in the mill.

They will snag thin wall tubing pretty bad. You stand a real good chance of ruining your tube.

Cool, thanks for the answers - I wasn't sure if the coarse pitch would be a problem, sounds like it is so I'll stick with the holesaws.
