Anyway, since most of my machining links went with the big PC crash of
2006, I was hoping that someone could direct me to some sites that
explain the characteristics and features of various indexable tooling.

I just have to learn more about it. :-)

Have you looked through their catalog? *Link above.

I downloaded that catalog a week ago.

But what I'm looking for is a tutorial.

For example, where would I go online to read the definition(with

Thanks.
