I have been using this kit for about a year now with no complaints! For the price you can’t go wrong. I’ve cut material from annealed tool steel, stainless steel to delrin.

The part that's good is the holders are accurately machined for a good fit and the inserts are very sharp. I can get a good surface finish even with .001" finishing cuts.But there are some flaws with this set that really diminish its usefulness. There are no left hand bits, so no way to turn the rim of a disc, or face toward the centerline. The external threading tool is biased so you can thread to a shoulder, but it is so much easier and safer to thread in reverse away from the chuck with the tool upside down, and for that you need a bit biased the other way.The boring bar has only .75" of relief so you can not bore any deeper without either grinding relief along the bar or angling it in the toolpost to provide the relief, which substantially increases the minimum bore size. The internal threading tool had the same issue, but of course you can't angle it because the insert is square to the axis of the bar. This insert is very small: the maximum thread pitch is about 14 TPI (1.75mm) and the minimum diameter the bar will fit inside is about 5/8" (16mm) so there is absolutely no standard nut you can thread with this tool. The external threading tool is a bit bigger and could go to 8 TPI (3mm), which is still not great.All in all, I'm disappointed in the set and expect I'll only use a couple of the tools to any extent, so what seemed like a low price is certainly not, at least for my use cases.

My only complaint is that there aren’t any right side cutting bit holders in the set.

I have a small, in-expensive lathe, mostly used for hobby work.I was really surprised at this set. Each item came in it's own plastic (not cardboard) container.Each item has it's own screw driver tool. Everything seems really good quality.Even though it was the holidays, I still received the set within a week.Well worth the price.
