Perfect for my grizzly G0602 lathe.

This is good if you are just getting into machine work and found out tooling is expensive. I got it to replace a few of my cheaper tool holders that I had to modify for different projects. I generally use larger holders but sometimes need these to get the job done.

CHAWNIAO lathe tools are being used as replacement to some decades old steel tools on an old small lathe. The cut quality of carbide compared to steel, especially without lubricant, is superior in every way. So far they've been tested on plastic, aluminum, and mild steel, each material cutting with exceeded expectations. The holders are rigid, and the inserts are sharp. Glad to have chosen these tools!

Can't wait to get more involved with these new lathe. I've made pens and even a bowl but I can't wait to the them to make a vase and others. Great price and they feel like they are solid!

For most of my work on a lathe, I use triangular inserts. They work well and serve most purposes. But from time to time, trapezoidal inserts come my way and I have wished for a set of tool holders to make use of them. These holders work well and the inserts that come with them are decent quality and cut well without excessive wear. As a set, the one thing that I would wish for is that it came with both right-handed and left-handed holders. (This, of course, would increase the cost of the set, but would greatly improve the usefulness of the set at the same time.)The boring bar doesn't quite fit into a 1/2" hole without interference. This is exacerbated by the mounting screw being long enough to stick out of the bottom of the holder. This can be addressed by taking a deep cut on the first pass or by fudging things and cutting high at the first few passes. (Suboptimal geometry for the insert but it gets the job done...) Though of course, you could start your boring operations with a 9/16" hole and then all will be well.I like the internal and external threading inserts. I don't do a lot of single pointing threading but a recent project needed this and these inserts and tool holders served very well.
