Carbide tooling finally

Finally I have carbide tooling that I can use when I turn harder materials, something I find myself doing more often lately. While visiting family in central Pa. I stopped by grizzly and picked up a set of Glanze 12mm tool holders. I took the following videos while I was trying out some inserts i purchased.
