Carbide cutters where to buy

[endacoz]

I always got my carbide cutters from Captain Eddie. Going back 10 years. I need some more round cutters various sizes and his website is down and I am looking for other places to get them at decent prices.

One of my carbide tools is a full size rockler round. I lost the screw anytime know what size screw or where to get one?

Thanks!

No idea what size screw you'll need, but Rockler will be able to answer the question.

As Duncan commented, the AZ Carbide Cross Reference Chart not only lists cutters but the screw size used as well. - Dave

The Easy Wood Tools carbide cutters may be compatible with these, would have to verify dimensions.

always bought from AZ Carbide or EWTs. May try these: Cutters

Amazon type in the size you need and usually can find 10 packs.

I am looking for some carbide cutters for my Easy Wood tools and found this discussion. I was comparing CiO cutters. Easy Wood sells them for $30, AZ Carbide $11 and Amazon has 10 packs for $3 each. These are significantly different prices. Does anyone know if there is a significant quality difference or is it the name for Easy Wood, US company for AZ and shipped from china for Amazon?

There is a MASSIVE quality difference. The ones you get off Amazon will be cheap, poorly made imports from China that won't hold and edge very long. You will go through 3-4 of them by the time you go through 1 EWT cutter. The EWT cutter outlast the other American made aftermarket brands as well.

I have tried cheap ones off Amazon, reputable aftermarket ones such a AZ Carbide and others but none of them hold as well or as long as actual EWT cutters. EWT created the market for carbide cutters in woodturning and they continue to lead it with the best quality products available. Granted, the wood you're turning does play a role in the life span of any cutter but broadly speaking, EWT are the best cutters.
