Kind of screwed myself by not having a desent Boring bar selection in my arsenal of tools and 1 little screw shut down my whole week end.
I have a APT 2” Boring Head that came with a Shars 7/16” x 2 ¾” Boring Bar. The POS screw seized into the holder, and after I stripped out the torx wrench trying to free it, I finally threw it away.
Ordered 1 of Enco’s USA brand insert boring bars with a 1 deg rake so I could finish (some time next week ~ ) but would like to know what you guys are using for mild steel or Al. applications
