Does anyone know of a source for individual or multiple purchases of really small cutting broaches in the region of .2-.4mm. Some sets come with such tiny broaches (and I succeeded in breaking my final small one tonight).
Squires do a lovely bundle of small broaches designed to fit into pin vices, or whatever, but they're way too big for what I'm after.

Re: Mini Cutting Broaches
A simple online search also turned up Meadows and Passmores site, with individual broaches;

Clockmaking suppliers seem the best option.

Last time I tried to buy something from Cousins they were "trade only"

I just ticked their "other" box with "private use" on the classification page and had no trouble buying stuff from them. Came the following day!

Re: Mini Cutting Broaches
if Cousin's won't play ball, then their competitors Cooksongold may have something suitable.
