Do any of you know what these little 9mm carbide inserts are "normally" used for?

There are a number of woodworking tools that use carbide inserts these days but as the market is relatively small they invariably use inserts originally intended for other uses.

TIA.

Hi Vic,

It's known as a profiling tool i think, for making radius recesses into columns, as you saw there, for bowls and vessels too. Leaves a very nice finish on brass too.
