Carbide tip code??
« on: September 24, 2009, 12:23:04 PM »
Does anybody know where I can get + code for a big carbide cutting tip.  Would prefer a triangle about 3/4".

whats it for?

if you've got the tool its for, you can work out the code for the tip from the code on the tool :thumbup:

if you know the size you need, ie, length, widith, tip rad, hole in middle or not, someone is sure to have the answer :thumbup:

Hi sorry should have said

I want to make a ball turner for woodwork lathe and will make the holder so detail not important.  Just needs to be big enough to have a cutting edge of at least 1/2 inch. Triangle / diamond shape would be good.  Possibly only need one as wood is not going to blunt it anytime soon.

Bogs Thanks a bunch the tips you sent got here.  They are spot on.

Just need a few more bits that the scrap bin can't help with and then to get started.

Glad I could help with your project Gerhard.

I have a few more of the big dumpy ones if you go that way.
