I am relatively new on the lathe, but while turning this piece of steel it went from cutting perfectly to a rough finish. I tried a new carbide insert, re-centering the cutting height and can not get it to produce a nice finish again. Right when I was down to the .001" from the tolerance I needed. Can anyone tell me why it suddenly produced a rough finish? Oddly enough, it started out that way but early on it disappeared and then it came back.
