We don't do flame wars here. That's one of the things that are different here. Respect, I believe it's called. You're just as entitled to your opinion and choice as anyone else here.
I'm pretty much a carbide advocate myself. BUT, HSS surely has a place in many, if not all shops. There are numerous advantages in a production environment, obviously, but even in a hobby shop, carbide can make things easier and faster. You just have to know when to use it, and when to break out the grinder to make a HSS tool. In a commercial shop, time is money, so carbide will win out nearly every time. Every time on a CNC. On a manual machine, there are some things that really are best handled by a hand grind. Our rework guys used HSS tools quite a bit to chase after the NC machines for some profiles that you just couldn't cut manually otherwise.
But this is a home shop forum, and our discussions center on what is good for the hobbyist. Carbide isn't for everything or everyone, but it surely should be considered, and no one should be ridiculed for their choice.
