do you get your parting blades, turning and facing tools from? and what do most of you prefer, indexable, nondexable, HSS and cut your own on a grinder, and of course where you get your supplies from.
Thanks

I use thin parting blade. Got a thick one too. All over Ebay.

Micro 100 lathe bit.
TCGMT insert as well.
All from Ebay.

I don't grind outside of parting tools.

I use 4-flute end mills for boring holes for screws, insert and threads.
Makita router on the tool post.

I have been looking at ebay and got my tool post from there, there are time I like to go in and touch and feel before I buy but I guess that'll have to do I guess, by the way are you coming out here for the Derby?
