tillmon 2 Posted January 13, 2021 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to use a local engineering firm to get tips for my cobra comm lathe resharpened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
