14 degree (full angle) carbide burrs are a standard item and inexpensive.  Long shank tools are available, as well as those with wider flutes for cutting aluminum.

Thanks Theo. Machining was definitely complicated. For a college team w/ limited resources I would highly suggest going AN, aluminum, and designing it to slide into the flare, w/ no curves (like my waterflow demo venturi). Additionally if your diffuser half angle is 7 deg, you can buy 7 deg tapered end mills.
