We are running a shaft on our CNC Swiss that has an eccentric diameter on one end. We tried picking off the shaft and milling the eccentric with an end mill but could not get the required surface finish. The tolerance is too tight for a hollow mill. Is there a better end mill or method we can use?

There are a lot of people outfitting their CNC machines with carbide insert box tools (Boyar-Schultz or Brown & Sharpe). The method is old but it still works great for control of long diameters. This is done with the controling rollers. You may not have the room on this given machine, but it does work.
