Kevin,
I think the best thing I can do is point you to some books:
Machining Fundamentals John R. Walker (Hardcover, 1982)
22nd Edtion Machinery's Handbook 1984
Both can Found on Ebay or Half.ebay.com
These will help you al ot.

Hi everyone,
I have a stupid question. I received my 7x12 mini lathe a couple
weeks ago, I ordered my cutting blades from harbor freight and they
came in today. Guess I was so excited about ordering my hhs cutting
bits that I realy didn't read the sales advertisement that well. I
thought I would get the same size cutting bits (got the 5 pc set)
I knew i was getting a cut off bit but i thought the other 4 bits
were 1/4" bits.
This is what I got: 1ea) 1/2 x 1/16 x 4 1/2
1ea) 1/8 x 2 1/2
1ea) 3/16 x 2 1/2
1ea) 1/4 x 2 1/2
1ea) 1/4 x 2 1/2 ( round bit )
So I guess what my question is what is the 1/4" round bit used for?
What is the small 1/8" bit used for, some small delicate work?
Thank you for your help in answering these question.
Kelvin
