Tip for Twister Comm Lathe

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

I own a vintage Twister Comm Lathe, but the carbide tip is a bit old now, does anyone know where to source good quality carbide or even diamond tips for this kind of lathe?  I've been searching on Google there are hundreds of references but are they all  reliable (Lots of Chinese stuff BTW)?

 

Thanks!

Might be worth seeing if you can get the current tip resharpened? I used to use a local engineering firm to get tips for my cobra comm lathe resharpened.
