I was always under the impression that carbide insert tooling needed more pressure and speed than could be reasonably expected from a 9" SB. Lately, I hear that there may be inserts that will work.
As local suppliers are limited around here, I have settled on 1/2" Kennametal tool holders (left, right, straight, boring) that I can get from Acklands-Grainger.
I generally turn harder steel. Not much mild, and never tool steel. Usually 1-2" round.
What would you recommend for Kennametal inserts? Shape? Grade? Numbers?
