Re: Quality question: Tormach TTS Boring Head?
Whatever you get, don't rely on a cheap $20-40 set of boring bars. There is a reason why a single Criterion boring bar costs the same as a whole set of imports. If you are looking at very small boring bars, look for the solid carbide ones for added rigidity.
The brazed carbide ones they throw in with the boring bar sets like they are crackerjacks prizes are complete junk.
