I drool over the Wohlhaupter UVA facing and boring heads. I once had a job where I used on quite a bit, and there's no other boring head that can tough it's repeatability, rigidity and overall performance.
As for boring BARS, here's a photo of most of ones I use on the lathe:
From top to bottom are:
5/16" x 6", unknown make, solid carbide shank, steel head, coolant through, uses CCGT1.81.51 inserts. E05M-SCLCR1.81
3/8 x 8", unknown make, solid carbide shank, steel head, coolant through, uses TPGT21.5x inserts. E06R-STFCR-2
1/2" x 10", unknown make, solid carbide shank, steel head, uses TPGT21.5x inserts. E08-STUCR-2
5/8" x 12" Valenite VCND73, solid carbide shank, steel head, no coolant through, uses TPG22x inserts. In ANSI language, it would be C10T-TFPR-2
3/4" x 12" Valenite, steel shank, steel head, coolant through, uses DNxx-33x inserts. A12T-DDUNR-3
1" x 12" Parfana, steel shank, steel head, no coolant through, uses CNxx43x inserts. S16T-MCLNR-4
1-1/2" x 16" Valenite, steel shank, steel head, coolant through, uses CNxx43X inserts. A24V-DCLNR-4
I'll get a photo of some of the smaller ones later, including one Ø 1/4" insert type, a number of solid carbide (1/2" and under), and a set of brazed carbide.
