The electrode of an electrodischarge machining apparatus has a plurality of teeth which are substantially laterally tapered to increasing width toward the machine-held base end. Further, the plane of the tapered portions is inclined to that of the free end portions, which precede the tapered portions in application to the airfoil surface to be machined. As the tapered and inclined portions are inserted into the airfoil surface, a plurality of holes are formed which are diffused in both lateral directions and in one longitudinal direction to thereby provide a diffused hole with improved film cooling effectiveness.
