Hi there ladies a gentleman, just wondering if anyone could guide me in the right direction, I’ve just got into hobby machining about a year ago, started with a mini lathe, have just possibly downgraded to a 10x22 bench lathe…no the rigidity etc is fantastic compared to my previous one really happy with it apart from… okay so here is the issue.
Change gears for threading.
Okay so I believe I’m setting the gears correctly however I don’t believe this is the case because the thread pitch isn’t correct I’m aiming for 1.25 as you can see from photos the pitch isn’t correct on the scratch pass, do the drive gears look correct? Haven't a clue any help would be much appreciated, also I’ve done a little test with all the gear combinations, how I believe they’re set up anyway! you can see the pitch per 1 revolution of the spindle, some of them are correct but some are wrong. Any ideas let me know. Thankyou
