This link doesn't take you to the right list. Click the link and then click "Carbide End Mills"....not any of the "miniature" links....those are really tiny and expensive.

McMaster is generally a little higher than most but in these small sizes they're competitive.

Thanks Kevin contacted the seller. I looked at abt 10 website sellers ,that was the best price on a 10 pack for $ 35.

Yet another source for quality mills. Just click on 'Carbide Micro End Mills'

I might add, these are high quality, American make and reasonably priced

Gesswein has 1/16 shank bits. They are more like dental burs than end mills.

I also use the Carbide Plus / Drillman1 ebay bits. I assume they aren't as good as the higher $ ones, and I haven't tried them with shell, but they've worked well for me with wood.
