Over-extending a cutting tool from the tool post will increase the risk of it breaking dur- ing operation, which may cause metal pieces to be thrown with great force at the operator or bystanders. Only extend a cutting tool 2.5 times the width of its cross-section or less (e.g., 2.5 x 0.5" = 1.25").
