Thread: Quick change tool post, advice please

sometimes HSS is the best choice if you are doing an unusual/awkward job, esp if your machine is fairly light. Assab 17 is head and shoulders more durable than the rest imo, and surprisingly affordable if you sniff around a bit. also in recent times i've been using "wonder inserts" from carbide nz for things like resurfacing the clutch face on a flywheel (localised work hardened patches) where a normal carbide insert "pushes off" a whisker. https://carbidenz.co.nz/tngg160408r-...wonder-insert/
