terry o, all
if you use a diamond cutoff wheel or a diamond sharpening stone,
tungsten carbide will cut like butter. i used to be a finish tool
grinder in a diamond insert co., the carbide inserts had a diamond tip
silver soldered onto them in a pocket. the diamond wheels that we used
would cut bare tungsten like it wasn't even there, but use water to stop
the wheel from loading up. this way a rounded end can be made very
easily.
