New to the forum...
A few yeas ago I acquired an older TOS sn45b lathe. I’ve used it quite a bit here and there making pins, bushings, tools etc. A good addition to the field line boring part of my business.
Lately I set about to cut some threads. I have the procedure down, or so I thought. The resulting threads are beautiful but the pitch is wrong. All I have is my familiarity with this machine but I don’t have much in the way of documentation. The change gears seem right.
Set the machine up by the table on the machine. Obviously, I’m making a mistake somewhere.
If anyone out there have some expertise with this procedure on this machine I would appreciate any help offered.
Thanks in advance.
