I'm not totally sure of this,but if you have a meteric lead screw a thread dial won't work. You better ask around about this.
I made one for my SB from plans I got from an article in Popular Science magazine of about 1941 or so vintage.
In order to cut threads on a metric lathe you must keep half nuts engaged and reverse the motor. May not be
true ,but I read or heard it somewhere.
