I'd have to agree with great service from Tools4cheap. Jeff worked out a special price for shipment to Australia and the items arrived within a week. I'll be using them again.

Hello All,
I can across this site which has some interesting old material. I'm not sure if this has been posted before.

I noticed a comment in the Thin Parting tool thread about running the lathe in reverse for parting off. Is it as simple as turning the tool upside down in the holder, setting the height and off you go or is there more to it than that? Have I missed something?

I've been reading this thread with interest. Do the warnings about grinding on the side also apply to those drill sharpening jigs that work that way?

I'm thinking about buying a digital height gauge. I have the choice of a 150mm (6 inch) at A$129 or a 300mm (12 inch) at A$219. I wonder if I will get enough use out of the extra height to justify the extra $.
Any comments on which way to go would be appreciated.
