I emailed him and he was quick to email back with his list of stock -
he apparently does have both 1/4" and 1/2" end mills. With shipping
($8 per order to NY), the prices were good, but not quite amazing
enough to justify buying bits I don't need right now. $11 for a 1/4"
4-flute, $17 for a 1/2" 4-flute, plus shipping. If I could pick up one
of each of these without paying shiping, I probably would, but I've
already used up most of my early Christmas money on a mortising
machine, so I'll be trying that instead of a router for mortises
anyway...

True, Morris ... but Greenfield isn't a junk bit, either. As a
die-maker, I remember we used to always hope that that is what would
come back when we requested a tap. Hard enough to cut, ductile enough to
last a while before snapping off deep in a hole. ;-)
There was also a "Made in Yugoslavia" brand of tap that gave us good life.
Nothing quite like the soft 'snick' sound a tap makes when snapping off
in a hardened hole in an all-but-complete part.
My stomach just knotted up again. :-(

I'm not really conversant on this, just thought, if you are not gonna
plunger when routing, you need not ask for center cutter, yes?

I use a four flute 3/8 end mill for most mortise cutting with my
Multi-Router (PC 690 motor) ... they work well and last a long time.

Strangely enough they work batter and last longer than carbide bits straight
bits.
