I'm in the process of making a Rotary Broaching tool. I'm interested in
broaching a 3/8" square hole 1/2" thru the work and at a 45 degree
angle to the center of the work.Anyone have any experience in this
area?
Thanks .... Al Basham

Check out Slater tools if you haven't already.

What type of machine are you doing this on?
Is it a round part on a lathe, or a rectangular part on a mill, or
something totally different?

Giving a lot more info would help people with experience broaching to
understand what it is you are trying to do, and what info you need.
