Thread Cutting on the Hardinge Lathe
#10
Nice... I have a quick-withdraw too on my Holbrook (on the cross-slide, which has two sets of dovetails so taper attachment and power cross-feed are independent), but for no readily apparent reason they left out leadscrew reverse on the model C... All the other Holbrooks got it :( I have to rely on the VFD and transmission brake to stop when threading, Dammit!

I have a cunning plan to add it, it's getting the stops to work (without a horribly complicated mechanism) on threading that has me stumped...
