There are all kinds of types and makes of carbide. I really think the person that has the most selection and cheapest is Capt Eddie http://www.eddiecastelin.com/cutters_only You get three of the same cutters for the same price others ask for one. Also if you look at the site you will find steel bars of both round or square of different sizes too that come with carbide cutters. http://www.eddiecastelin.com/combos_and_other_items Arlin
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

I'm looking at ordering these myself. Anyone know which one of the Caps cutters replaces the 2" radius SR1 cutter, for the rockler mini pen rougher?
Thanks, Bob

If I had a signature, this wouldn't be it.

I haven't had the experience using this company ,they carry a nice selection of cutters, the screw for that particular cutter , drill bits and taps to make your own tools. Price seems fair .
