carbide cutters

[steamshovel]

I read it somewhere about carbide cutters with a good price and now I can't remember. My memory is a thing of the past-the far past. Does anyone know where I can go? I tried a search and found nothing.


Thanks, Preston

Can you guys list some part numbers that you're buying from Global to replace the EWT cutters?

that would probably help a bunch of people that are asking where to get them.

I should make it more clear, the carbide cutters that you use for woodturning is what I am wanting. They come in different sizes square, round,diamond shaped, & ? They have a screw hole in the middle to mount the cutter and the square one you have 4 sides to turn with.


Thanks, Preston

Those are the ones I get as well. The shipping is rediculous, but it still comes to way cheaper than elsewhere.

I bought the square and round ones from these guys : AZ Carbide - Carbide Cutters and Inserts for Woodturning Tools
They are priced pretty much in the middle and are compatible with my Easy Wood Tools. So far I like them, but I am getting used to using a skew.

I didn't find that I had as many options if I was going to stay with my EWT handles. I am sure Captn Eddie and others make darn good cutters too. I would love to patronize Captn Eddie if I could.

I have been ordering these:

4 Sided 1 Hole Insert Knife, 50mm Radius, 15mm x 15mm x 2.5mm , Southeast Tool SI-151525-R50

They have a great radius and the seem to last a while. At $5.50 per cutter I figured I could not go wrong.

Radius - AZ Carbide @ 5.95 ea

+1 for AZ Carbide (azcarbide.com) - Dale will get you what you need at a good price. And he uses flat rate shipping $2. I just built 7 tools using his cutters, and love every one.
