Looking for a router bit
I need to make a stamp and I need something finer than my 60° bit. 30° should work, 15° would be better. 1/4" shank. I'm not having luck finding this.

If you can hunt up a 1/8" collet that fits your router, there are any number of Dremel bits in HSS or diamond tip that would work. Alternatively, you might want to look for 1/4" shank bits intended for a RotoZip.

That opens up a lot of options. Thanks.

Try looking at CNC router bits. I found this lettering set that might have what you're looking for.

If all else fails, and you've got a steady hand, you could try grinding away at a larger bit to make what you need.

The lettering bit may work for some of what I need. Thanks. I swear I looked on that site for an hour and didn't see any of that. Their search function sucks. Lol

Toolstoday.com Amana sign making/engraving bits. 15 degree and 18 degree carbide. I have been very pleased with their quality. American made iirc.

Yeah, I learned a long time ago to just ignore the search function entirely on most vendors' sites and instead go to the "router bits" category and look for myself. Amazon and ebay are honestly the only sites where I trust the search function.

Hope it works out for you.
