I came across this great little tutorial for reading your chips while drilling. Good info for self taught machinists.

Very Good, Sandvik has many good videos! Although I don't use any of their tooling, they are #1 in the industry, although Iscar is catching them. (I talk to an Iscar guy weekly)

Here is a picture of my Chip

I keep the complete Coromant pdf as a handy reference for all the formulas one would need.
Their diagrams and details for every equation are of the most complete, easy to use and understandable I have found.
Months ago I watched and went thru all their training videos and testing found it well worth my time.
My avatar is even off their site

Thanks for posting that video. Will someone give that guy two coffee cups?

I subscribed to him before he was popular, was probably like his 20th subscriber. I just can't get past how he talks, so unfortunately don't watch
