When cutting an Acme and only using the cross. I would make the tool bit narrower that it should be. Set the compound to 90°. And use the compound to reposition the tool bit to cut just on one side of the Acme thread for each pass (for most of the time)…Dave
So just by changing the compound angle just by an degree or so... or less? Yes sometimes you have to dumb it down for me If it gets too simple especially. Seems like I could ruin the thread easily if I'm not careful.
