No, that's now, not earlier on in the evening.
In between was spent wasting the children's inheritance on a couple of oil
seals and an hundred 5/8" bearing balls for the grinder (it needs 52, but with
100, I can select for size)

I have been mulling over an indexable tip parting tool for some time.
I am currently considering a Hertel blade from J&L currently on offer
at £32.95 +VAT. The Holder I will make (hopefully).
The advantage is capacity. The Chronos looks to be about 32mm OD max
the Greenwood is 42mm the Hertel is 76mm (if you pick the 2.2mm x 26mm
deep blade. It is also machined for a blade at both ends. Useful
should you damage an end.
One small note. Hertel suggest that the tip should be 0.1mm above
centre line for cutoff in solid bar stock. Not sure if the same for
Greenwood or Glanze.

Must measure the holder I have, I only need a blade. Existing HSS blade is
OK but needs frequent sharpening if it's to work at all reliably, and at
that I generally get the angles wrong.

Like Tony, I have the Q-cut - bought before the Glanze one appeared. I
have to say it is the best parting tool I have ever used, by a mile.
Parting off is now a comparative pleasure, never needed to think about
rear tool posts and all that stuff. I saw a demo at Myford last year of
a guy doing it with pxf and a flood of suds, damn fast too, went through
the steel like butter.
