Accusize Industrial Tools 1/2" 9 Pieces/Set, Indexable Carbide Turning Tools and Boring Bar, 2988-0012

I bought this carbide turning tool set back in Jan. 2021 and they have greatly improved my lathe turnings surface. I didn't post a review at the time, don't remember things like that. But now for the reason for this review is: I accidentally caught one of the carbide tool bits into a piece I was turning and snapped the screw that holds the insert to the cutters shank. I was able to get the broken screw out but when I looked for a replacement screw, I was not able to find any.I searched my orders on Amazon for the original order to see if there was any screws for sale to fit the cutter. On reading about the set it states that extra screws came with the set. I'm sure they was not included in my set, as I would have stored them with extra inserts.I contacted Accusize through Amazon and got a reply the next day. They are sending me a set of screws via the mail. Great Customer Service.. I will buy Accuzise again when needed.

I have an old Harbor Freight combination mill/manual lathe with a 14.5" swing. Additional tool holders are reasonably priced so you can have one for each bit and have them perfectly aligned. Everything is machined very well and bits are precisely ground. I used the simple steel ruler for alignment and it worked great. I did some facing on some small diameter brass rods. I will also be using these on aluminum and steel. The kit includes a threading bit and I don't need that I suggest including a boring bar for us manual lathe owners (more useful in my case). I highly recommend this product and seller!

Great turning tools!

have not used yet but they look to be of good quality .

Used these in combination with the Al specific insert alternatives (you need to purchase separately). Would be awesome if they could bundle an “Al version”. Also ID threading is missing
