Does anyone know if it's possible to turn down an impact socket? I have a deep one that I want to remove some length from.

Just use a tip tool
Sockets are tough not hard John

You got a new parting tool with inserts that will make short work of it. ;)
For this, use the wider shank-type tool. A bigger insert will be stronger when you get to the interrupted cut. I think I sent you some inserts for that holder with the "GG" chipbreaker. That's the strongest of them. If you had a tough grade such as 5735, even better although the 5820 will probably work OK if it's GG. Thanks given by: EdK

I know what you mean Jack, I get the same thing. Another smelly operation in the shop is machining any galvanized steels.
