Put a 1/2" bar in the collet and take a light cut going from left to right. Carriage or compound.
Now go back the other way. Slight hills get lopped off as seen with magnification.
The movement is slow on both passes. Sharp centered brazed carbide C5 on 304 SS for example.
I would think if the travel was fast then there would be a cross hatch pattern. But not slow with a radius on the tool.
Why does the back travel hit material?
I also remember a tidbit about depth of cut. Should be at least .005 or greater. Sorry to the author of that rule. I often have to dial in a dimension
with .001 increments. Bad/good?
