If you are fan of YouTube machining videos MrPete222 (tubalcain) you may
have seen an insert tool he seems to like a lot for basic grunt turning. It’s
a doubled ended tool with a triangular insert on each end.
I've looked for one, but haven't found one. I considered getting a pair of
MTENN insert tools, and cutting them to fit in one of my tool holders back
to back, but they hold the insert at an angle. That's fine except for
threading. I don't know if the ten degree added angle throws off the 60
degree angle enough to matter, but it throws it off enough that I'd still
feel more comfortable swapping to a threading tool or a threading insert.
Anyway, I'd really like to find a tool similar to the one he is using.
