My lathe is a smaller lathe. It’s a Craftex CX701 12x24”. It’s the Canadian version of the Precision Matthews PM-1127VF-LB. I’m not sure how deep of a cut I can actually take with a lathe this size.
On my invoice it says I purchased 5-1/2” HR Round HTSR 4140 R/L
I don’t know if the HTSR will give any more info.
Also. What does the R/L stand for?

Hopefully the "HR" doesn't stand for hardened.
