Good morning,
Well I've been watching for a SB heavy 10 in my area for at least 3 months now and no luck. Now I'm looking at the G9972z as a second choice. After reading contradicting information I've now been able to confirm that it has powered crossfeed but I have another question about reversing the feed direction. I need to be able to reverse the feed direction with the split nut remaining in the same thread because of a semi-DIY electronic threading mod that requires it to cut metric. Can I reverse the feed and keep it in the same thread simply by using the black R L switch next to the emergency stop? I'm not trying to cut LH threads, just want to stay in the tread instead of backing out, moving it with the wheel and starting the next cut based on timing. Thanks!
