Abstract

A cutting attachment is provided having a first body member, a second body member and a plurality of pins spaced an equi-distance apart for connecting the first body member to the second body member to form a rigid body wherein at least a portion of the first and second body members are spatially disposed a distance apart, each of the pins having a bearing surface substantially corresponding in length to the distance between the first and second body members. The cutting attachment further includes a connector for connecting the rigid body to a shaft or arbor of a rotating cutting apparatus and a plurality of cutting members connected to the pins such that the cutting members are rotatable about the pins and axially movable along the bearing surface of the pins to effect cooling of the bearing surface of the pins and thereby enhance the life of the cutting members by reducing heat and friction between the pins and the cutting members due to movement of the cutting members about and along the bearing surface of the pins.
