I only have a single 1/2" boring bar from Mesa tool that has a flat edge on the shank ,I may occasionally need to bore smaller diameter than 1/2" so I found this set on ebay (1/2" shank on all 3):
the bars in this Borite set do not have that flat edge, I'm thinking if I mill the flat myself I could use them with my boring head.
I'm not sure about the quality though, are these any better than the cheap imports? will the round shank cause problems when tightening the setscrew in the boring head?
The price is $40 plus shipping, or I could make a lower offer, you comments and opinions are appreciated.
