................In their most recent flyer. These are made by Circle C. I think they have the 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2" bars on sale for like $107 each. These all come with 5 or 10 inserts, spare screw and the TORX wrench, in a nice closeable plastic tray with foam insert. Regular price on these things is WELL over $200

A couple of these with 10 inserts means you're only paying like $30 for the freaking bar :-)!

Says limited supply, too.

Buckshot,

Thanks for the heads up! I think I bought everything I need from the eBay guy... What does it take to wear out an insert?

Thanks,
John

Kirb,

A seller, JTs Machinery and Supply Co, has several carbide boring bars for sale. Here's a link to his store (http://stores.ebay.com/JTS-Machinery-And-Supply-Co). The boring bars I purchased only came with one insert.

Do a search on "boring bar" in his store. He has a bunch of items available at great prices.
