Does anyone ever need to thread anything finer than 56 TPI?

A high feature good quality machine in a smaller package would be attractive to many with limited space.

Cannot have everything so if change gears will be considered for metric then possible change gears for fine threads.

We do not consider doing that work but having super fine feed is a must.

Make the spindle same as larger model to allow interchangeable parts to reduce product lines.

3 phase motor with vfd single phase input and gear head to allow better speed control.

Fastest rpm possible.
 
Threaded spindle nose is the main turn off for most small lathes, that said I used to have an ancient - flat bed! myford
