Coarse threads on a 9 x 20 lathe
I've got a Grizzly 9 x 20 lathe and need to cut some threads at 4 tpi. Any
thread charts for this lathe I've got only go down to 6 tpi. Question is, can I cut 4 tpi on this lathe? And what gears do I use? Has anyone done this? FWIW, when cutting coarse threads I use a hand crank to turn the spindle. TIA, Paul |
