Hey Crew,

I've never really used purpose specific finish turning tools when profiling a barrel. I've been using insert tooling and hand ground, radius nosed HSS....but I have to keep a close eye on surface finish.

Granted most people want bead blasted or Cerakote finish these days...But I's still like to know more about finishing tooling if any body has suggestions or tips...

Thanks!
 
The practical machinist search function isn't great. Using google or your prefered search engine tends to yield better results.
