For some time i have been making my own small carbide tools by brazing broken carbide cutters togeter, and then shaping them with a diamond wheel. However, my tool&cutter grinding is only manual, and holding precise dimensions is difficult. So I went web-shopping.
I had better add that I do not live in America, so I was looking for a mfr who would ship overseas by USPS. I found that quite a few won't export at all, and those who will want to use UPS or FedEx, at $100 a pop. Compared to a small packet by USPS, at ~$24, that is probitive.
I also want to pay by Paypal as I have been bitten by the credit card thieves once already. That was not fun.
Guess how many mfrs I could find who would POST overseas and take Paypal? I am not counting dealers as many of them have only a small subset of the range from any mfr - and often not the parts I was looking for.
However, Dan at Internal Tool (aka Valley Tool Inc) was persuaded to play ball. The tools (small carbide cutters mostly for internal use) have arrived, and they are cute! I haven't actually used them yet, but they do look good.
