Some months ago there was a thread regarding a "new" style of insert that pretty much everyone thought was quite good. IIRC Williecue started it but I could be wrong on that point. I have searched for this thread with no success so if someone could spoonfeed me the information I would appreciate it. I have been regrinding HSS tool bits for some time but always seem to have a problem getting a repeatable relief radius on the point of the tool which translates into wildly varying cut quality, especially on near to finish cuts so it's time for a change.

Thanks and Regards,
Stoney

Man you've got a good memory!! September 2008 is more than "some months ago" in my poor memory!!!:thumbup:
 
Go to the post Joey sent you to and look at the last comment on page 4. I listed correct part numbers and prices for inserts that fit both 1/2 inch square tool holders, and smaller 3/8 inch holders that fit the Cuesmith Deluxe with minor modification to the holders.
 
These are the nuts. I use them on three different lathes from a 7 X 12 to a 13 X 40 for any cuts on wood. By the way, Olson is the person who actually found these. Willee passed the word around.
