OK, I've been out of the loop for a long while due to job, loss of my FIL, loss of my dad, selling the MIL's house and moving her here, adding onto my house to build her an apartment to live in, and the list goes on and on from there. I've seen some turners using carbide tipped turning tools. What the overall consensus about them? I do have A2 HSS turning tools but some are getting rather short from all the use and resharpening. What say ye??
