How to turn carbide?
I've got a small project to do, where I want to turn down the O.D. of
some rock drills by .080". The problem is they are carbide inserted tips. Kinda as if you'd take four cemented carbide toolbits and make a countersink out of them. Don't have a toolpost grinder, and not thrilled about all the carbide dust anyway. Someone once mentioned a pressed diamond insert available.. would this be the way to go, or ceramic, or whatever? Does anyone here have any experience in turning carbide? Hope I'm not gonna be at the mercy of the Kennametal or Sandvik salesman...LOL Any suggestions are appreciated. Ron |
