I order the tooling for our CNC router at work (all top quality solid carbide Onsrud stuff) so all the burned or broken bits get turned into me for disposition. So I have a small box of broken bits with smooth solid carbide shafts and was thinking of mounting one in an old wooden screw diver handle for use as a burnisher.

Does anyone think this will work well?

I can probably find one with a 2” long smooth section, but that would be 1/2” dia.

I also have several broken 1/4” and 3/8” bits, but they have shorter shanks.

Thoughts?
