I've seen claims that you get better threads on a lathe with a VFD drive. I'm trying to visualize how the VFD is connected to the gear box. On my 12 X 36 the motor interfaces with the gear box via pulleys and a belt. Does the VFD drive the input gear directly and how is it mounted. Just asking the question makes me think I am totally ignorant of what is going on here and am so far off base that I can't even see the catcher. Sorry for the baseball analogy.
