Re parting off. This is no problem if the radius ground on the top of the tool leads the swarf out of the cut and not into the cut so that it blocks. The second important thing is to taper the blade so that it is considerably smaller behind the cutting edge. The only material I avoid is copper. For me parting copper can be a tin hat job. It has the nasty habit of grabbing the tool.
