Stu, I can see how the 8mm rod is expedient at this stage, but I expect that you will decide to drill, harden, and temper tool steel cutters eventually. As suggested, the ability to index a square cutter or rotate a round disc is invaluable.
As to that angle grinder thing… once we got in a load of schedule 40 pipe that was so out of round it wouldn’t slide into its mating part, so we rigged an angle grinder (hose clamped it), onto a plate attached to the cross slide of a lathe, and had relatively unskilled workers true it up enough to fit a gage.
