Such as?
End mills, slot drills and the like? I used to get all my tools in Toolroom Supplies in Smithstown Ind. Estate in Shannon. They specialised in toolmaking and machine operating equipment. Call Billy on 061-361600. If you can't make it out that far you could ask him if there's anywhere in Limerick. He's sound.

If it really has to be Limerick (rather than Shannon) try Joe mcKenna's on Parnell St. or Maurice Doody Supplies(if he's still there) off the Ballysimon Rd. (turn right after Heiton-Buckley's and an immediate left....he's on the right in there).

Do you know exactly what you need as a lot of workshops around town would help you out I'm sure

I need tips for a cnc mill head, dunno if this is how it's called, tried few shops in town and none seem to have any idea to where get them. found a guy in ballysimon business park that has few cnc mills and he offered to order them for me from some crowd in Dublin, but still looking for some more contacts

kenoconnell

as the lads said above the places in smiths town would have everything in stock, they supply all the tool makers in the estate

Maurice Doody would be good. But also look at Caulfields catalog online. They are based in Galway and will deliver.

Be careful when buying that you get the right type; slots, end mills, threaded shank, material selection etc.

Most suppliers would do carbide cutters. What kind of work are you doing that you require diamond tools.

He's most probably looking for a cutter with diamond tip inserts.
It's actually quite common to use Diamonds in a toolroom.
All those suppliers that have been mentioned stock what you are looking for.
If they don't what you are looking for is probably very specialised and I'd suggest contacting the manufacturer of the CNC that you have or the supplier.

Have you tried contacting Sandvik directly yourself?
They have salesmen who will know exactly what you need
