Last weekend I had a friend use my lathe for threading.
We set up the lathe to match the gear change chart. Which we found out is Not Correct. But that's easy to work around now that I know about it.
That part that has me wondering is if my lathe can actually do 13tpi, which is a thread that I will require it to do.
No where on the chart is 13tpi listed.
The incorrect part is that B & C need to be switched.
Is it possible to cut 13tpi with this lathe?
It's a Craftex CX701 lathe
