Re: Questions about chipbreaking inserts.

Hi Kim,

First, this is off topic. hopefully, someone will offer a place you
can get an answer.

ps: the chips should break into chips, not stingers. check the feed
rate.

Insert size is not the problem, but if your cut is too deep for the
chip breaker, considder a non-chip breaker insert and a sandwich
style (sits on top) for a higher angle.
