Accusize 1/2 in Shank Indexable Carbide Turning Tool Set, 2387-2004PLUS

I bought this carbide turning tool set back in Jan. 2021 and they have greatly improved my lathe turnings surface. I didn't post a review at the time, don't remember things like that. But now for the reason for this review is: I accidentally caught one of the carbide tool bits into a piece I was turning and snapped the screw that holds the insert to the cutters shank. I was able to get the broken screw out but when I looked for a replacement screw, I was not able to find any. I searched my orders on Amazon for the original order to see if there was any screws for sale to fit the cutter. On reading about the set it states that extra screws came with the set. I'm sure they was not included in my set, as I would have stored them with extra inserts. I contacted Accusize through Amazon and got a reply the next day. They are sending me a set of screws via the mail. Great Customer Service.. I will buy Accuzise again when needed.

I have an old Harbor Freight combination mill/manual lathe with a 14.5" swing. Additional tool holders are reasonably priced so you can have one for each bit and have them perfectly aligned. Everything is machined very well and bits are precisely ground. I used the simple steel ruler for alignment and it worked great. I did some facing on some small diameter brass rods. I will also be using these on aluminum and steel. The kit includes a threading bit and I don't need that I suggest including a boring bar for us manual lathe owners (more useful in my case). I highly recommend this product and seller!

They're great tools but, the box is garbage and the latch ended up falling apart on me after about two months of carrying around. Other than that, it's a great product and as long as you set your feed-rate right, the cutoff tool does not break.

Bits work excellent, machine hot roll bar stock, leave chrome finish after a pass, parting tool works great, all of it awesome, very impressive

Perfect

excellent quality and a good value

nice tool set for my mini lathe

Very good quality

Does the job

Tool holders look ok, but I didn't receive the extra inserts....just a ruler....not to impressed with that

Merci

Great quality for the price point. Works great on soft materials, not idea for steel.
