[nuchie]

What did you order? (Part #, Item) How much did it cost? I need 1/8 cutting bit. I have C machine with carve tight spindle. Does LHR have a web site?

Hello Folks,

I broke my 3/16 bit and need to replace. I do not want to order and wait. I am going to call around and need all details. I have a 1/4" split collar.

What is the total required length of the bit? Carbide OK for the Split collar? Is 2 Flutes OK. Needs to be an Up Spiral. And of course a 1/4" shank. Did I forget anything?

I thank you for you advice.

Dave

In the machine? Or you dropped it?

I did not set the depth and it was 70% thru cutting and thought I would like it go. I have been setting the depth to .325 for the 3/16 cutter and had no problem. But some reason I forgot and it bit me. Totally my fault. Now my wife is telling me that stuff should be under warranty. Can you tell she3 doesn't get it. But I am headed to Sears to buy hopefully several.
