🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between depth of cut and change in diameter when turning on a lathe • How the tool removes metal from one side of the workpiece but affects the full diameter • Difference between radius and diameter in machining operations

💭 Think About

• When you set a certain depth of cut on the cross‑slide, are you moving the tool toward the center by that distance, or are you directly changing the diameter by that distance? • If the radius of the workpiece is reduced by the depth of cut, what happens to the diameter (which is twice the radius)? • Visualize a round bar in the lathe: if you skim 1/16" off the surface all the way around, how much smaller is the diameter compared to the radial amount removed?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the difference between radius reduction vs diameter reduction • Confirm whether depth of cut on a lathe is measured radially (tool movement toward the center) or as a change in diameter • Eliminate any option that confuses feed rate (movement along the axis) with depth of cut (movement toward the center)
