🔍 Key Concepts

• Observe the orientation of the cutting edge on tool T relative to the workpiece rotation and feed direction. • Review the difference between a roughing tool, a side-facing tool, and a knurling tool in basic machine shop references. • Remember that left‑cut vs right‑cut refers to the direction the tool feeds along the work when cutting.

💭 Think About

• From the picture, in which direction would the carriage need to move to use tool T for a normal cut along the side of the workpiece? • Does tool T appear to form or displace metal in a pattern on the surface, or does it have a single sharp cutting edge removing chips? • Compare tool T with the other tools shown: which ones clearly look like knurling tools, and which look like side-facing or roughing tools? How does T match up?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which tools in the illustration are obviously knurling tools (look for paired wheels making a crosshatch pattern). • Check whether tool T’s cutting edge is designed mainly for facing a shoulder or for heavy metal removal along the length. • Confirm whether the cutting geometry of T would naturally cut when feeding toward the headstock or toward the tailstock, and match that with the left‑cut/right‑cut naming.
