Re: No compound #LATHES #RELS
Ah. So you do exactly the same thing mine does for following the flank. The only difference is mine doesn't do the extra move in the Z threading direction before it waits for the index and does the

Re: No compound #LATHES #RELS
Hello, All, Like John Lindo, I have also used Richard's system to cut both plunge and 29.5¡ã "compound simulation" threads, and can confirm that both work well. Unlike John, I have only had my

Re: No compound #LATHES #RELS
My X infeed per pass is based on a constant area calculation where obviously the depth of the very first pass dictates the area of the first cut and therefore subsequent cuts. When commencing an Auto

Re: No compound #LATHES #RELS
Well if you are following the hypotenuse of the 28.5 degree triangle then for each pass X is a bit deeper and Z is closer to the headstock if the thread is cut towards the headstock. Simple trig.

Re: No compound #LATHES #RELS
Wow John you have got me worried now! I did not think that it was "clever math" so I had better go back and check what I did. Richard

Re: No compound #LATHES #RELS
John, John, Jack or Jill I am so glad to get the responses. I am one step closer to actually using some form of motorized Z with the Z motor mount. Hopefully X will follow. Ralph

Hi Ralph, Much of the explanations are probably in the E-Leadscrew archives which unfortunately are pretty large. My ELS uses time to determine where the start of the thread is. If the spindle

Re: Use of mil #MISC
John, Thanks for the funny story! Another hilarious bit: A nominal 2"x4" board starts out 1.56 in. x 3.58 in. Then, the edges are surfaced (planed), reducing the actual size to 1-1/2 in. x 3-1/2
