Hi Ed
thank you for the reply
I have the extra gears but when I try to set it up as described on the metric gear cutting info plate inside the head stock cover i cant get it to work (gears end up too far apart!!!)
I’ll take some pics of the info on the lathe which will hopefully help as I’m not sure my post adequately describes the situation
the lathe is capable of cutting metric threads, (and I have extra gears ) my ineptitude in setting it up is the issue i think!
Kind regards
Bob
