Endmills, can sure break a meager hobbiest wallet, at a few $$'s each however at the same time, if you keep your eyes and ears open you may come across large quantities of them in nice condition either dirt cheap, or free from friends and local industries. I don't know if it is available to you, but you may be best off finding a good used source of endmills. American, Polish, Israeli, and recent Japaneese so far are all good, the Chineese ones don't quite hold up. But once you get good you tend to want to get decent endmills. Stupid beginners mistakes like milling the wrong direction, but I am sure glad it was only $3 cutters and not nice Niagras. My first time using a mill I went through quite a few endmills untill I got it right. but it may make sense for you to buy the set, just to learn if the price is right. From what I've heard from friends the cheapo sets are just that, cheap.
