look at any supplier to the metal working industry - for example, enco
(www.use-enco.com), MSC, and so on. There are places that reshapen carbides
too, a guy in san diego sells on ebay. And, I've dealt with a place in
Colorado, see below, that has a lot of surplus carbide right now

details.

Both the Hunter and the Eliminator have left me with the urge to try
out yet another member of the latest trend (after the ci1) but prices
are still a bit steep. Both sell their tips for around 20 usd while
industrial carbide inserts can be had for about a sixth of that (10
for 35$). Problem is, the industrial inserts dont seem to be that
sharp along the edge and sharpening them seems out of the question.
Im interested to hear from anyone with positive results with a DIY
tool of this sort.
thx,
Max
