so. I'm a woodworker. I play with metalworking. as a woodworker, I end up with carbide tipped saw blades. sometimes I end up with blades that have hit a nail or something and have lost a tooth or three. some of those blades are not worth rebuilding, but still have a number of intact teeth.
is it an insanely bad idea for some reason to saw out a parting tool from one tooth and part of the body? I'm sure it will be necessary to do a bit of grinding on the carbide to get the cutting angles right for metal. I'll do that with diamond, cooled with water.
