I did not want to hijack the thread where @Dennis Weiner asked me to show him the prototype cutters from Michael Hunter for the Brian McEvoy boring system, These cutters are simply amazing. They are just perfect for the giant bar. MIke will have a very limited supply in Chattanooga. Some are already sold...

Thanks for posting. Very Very tempting. I can see why they cut so well and why you like them. Out of my big bar, I also have a 3/4” round shaft adapter which I put the 3/8” Jamieson swivel adapter with the hunter cutter. It appears to have the same 30 degree tilt. Yours is looks sold, probably less vibration.
 
No, the cutters are 3/4" to fit @Emiliano Achaval 's 2 1/4" boring bar and other bars that accept a 3/4" cutter bar, such as the big carter system. I was just saying that I owned a Similar carbide cutter but mine is attached to the Jamies6on swivel attachment. I also have a bigger boring bar by Clark that accepts various size cutters. I have a Clark adapter from 3/4" to 3/8", Sorry if I wasn't clear.
