[QUOTE="jrock, post: 1547362, member: 78569"] Would a radius gage work on a helical cut if it was done with a convex cutter? I seems like a radius gauge would work if done with a ball end mill but if cut with a convex cutter, there would be a distortion in the radius as the bolt rotates. I'm no machinist and don't own a radius gauge set to check it with. Ball end mills are much cheaper than a convex cutter that is for sure. [/QUOTE]
