In another thread I talked about the spindle speed reducer I picked up for my lathe in order to cut long lead spiral threads, both internal and external threads and nuts with a single rotation in 2" for example. Today I came across this german manual on ebay that seems to describe a way of cutting these threads on an FP1 with the spiral milling attachment. For the nut they appear to put a boring bar in the slotting head. I assume they disable the up and down motion somehow and then what? Advance the slotting head a few thousandth's with each pass? How would you do that with any control? Maybe I'm totally missing something here. Does anyone think this would work?

Not great scans. Maybe one of the german speakers here can translate and explain what is going on.
What manual is this? I haven't seen this in any of my FP1 literature. I wish the price was a bit lower, I might buy it just to read this.
