==========================================================================
I've just finished this indexable toolholder which uses those 
nice, cheap TPG carbide inserts.

TPG inserts are triangular, positive rake - so the edges of a
holder must be cut at the 11 degree angle of the TPG inserts.
This is a facing holder, more to follow.

Check out TPGholder.jpg for a picture of the critter, for 
more details have a look at http://www.strappe.com/toolholder.html
