Turning Tools : How to select them

In turning, as it exists of numerous under types of tools, it is possible to reach the tool wished quickly:

By selecting at first the insert (Button  "Insert" ). The list is then updated with the tool holders supporting the selected insert

Having selected an insert, this list is updated

By selecting the cutting direction (R for right side and L for left) in field "Cutting Direction"

If we input a cutting direction, the list is updated

It is also possible to sort out this list by means of the thumb index  "Comments".

In that case, a graphic list, in connection with the ISO code, allows directly to reach the wished tool.

And return in the main list, which is updated.
