I blame the South Bend book "How to run a lathe". All of my threading woes (sawtooth, double start) in the beginning resulted from following that book to the letter. There are no footnotes in there telling you that the compound angle and the threading dial chart didn't work for Asian lathes. But everyone said that was THE book to follow.
Did they even make Asian lathes back then?
