Hi All,
I am needing some guidance on turning cutters for my lathe.
I have some HSS ones but need a better grinding set up and wheels to do the shaping of the tools.
Would like to do some turning instead of removing and changing profiles to see if the results improve! :-\
The HSS blanks i have are so hard it takes about an hour to grind a tool....
Looking at getting some good, reasonable priced indexable carbide tools.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
1/2 inch or smaller shank sized tools should be perfect!
Something that comes in a set would be nice!
Thanks,
Andrew
