Abstract
A rotating cutting tool is selectively biasable in the radial direction based on the angular orientation of the cutting blade, which may be used to create a non-axis symmetric feature in a bore. The radial position of the cutting blade may be controlled by selectively pressurized fluid whose pressure is varied based on the angular orientation of the tool. A plurality of vents may be selectively covered and uncovered to vent pressurized fluid to vary the pressure thereof.
