I am learning the hard way and tried threading with the crossfeed instead of compound cf. is it possible to do it with the crossfeed?
What kinds of problems are you encountering when cutting threads?
The downside of cutting with the crossfeed is the cutting is being done on both sides of the tool which doesn't load the tool such that the slack in the system is always taken up the same way. This can lead to a slight wavering of the thread.
When using the compound, most of the cutting is done on the leading edge so the cutting reaction is pushing the slack out the same way on each pass. This eliminates the wavering and gives a smoother thread.
