Hi all, many members have generously provided links to their favorite insert websites carbide insert catalogs, insert information and reference documents. I've been trying to create a list of those links from all the threads I have run across. It's a very painful search process and I'm not doing very well. I'd like to make it easy for everyone (including me).

I'm going to reply to this first post with what I was able to find so far. I will edit that post as others provide info. By editing that second post, the post will stay close to this one and be easy for everyone to find - including me! I'll also bookmark it.

Please help me make a comprehensive list of links.
