I tried my first threading today. 1.500 8 tpi. I was making a holder for a 3" 3 jaw chuck to fit to a 5c collet for my spin index. what a nightmare, my 10x 24 jet lathe has a feed index wheel and I started the thread on the number 2 and when I came back for the second cut I also started on the number 2 but the threads were not the same and it made new thread pattern . it didn't repeat the thread pattern . then I measured the travel for 1 turn on the 8marked wheel and the carrage only moved 3" not 4" as I expected.
Anyone had any experience on the jet 10x24 threading. I need skoolin... John
