Hi Tom,
hopefully I will be ready in a couple of weeks with my lathe so I can start running some tests on threading. It's been a long time since I last did make som threads and I believe I have Index + 6-8 pulses that I did run tests for Art way back and it did work very well.
I will send a message when I am up and running. The whole rework with changing CPU and TFT and a lot of other mechanical modifications has take much longer than planned, also we have had a very very cold winter so working in the shop was not advised, now it is better after installing new heating system. So my milling machine is also at stand still at this time but soon I hope I get to get all electrics fixed.
Cheers Bengt
