Crazy Threads...

Switching those two gears, tozguy was saying I need a 54t in place of the 51. three tooth difference. switching the 34 & 32 is only a two tooth difference, is that enough....?

Yes, the 34/32 (1.062) is the close equivalent of the 54/51 ratio (1.059) so it is enough.

Tom nailed it in No.229
 
i was going to take a video so you could share my discovery, but the wife went out and left the kid. was hard enough to run the lathe with youngin in arm.

i ran a 10 tpi and a 1.0mm. just scribed the surface not the full thread. but the tips of the thread gauge fit right in......... sigghhhhhh...
 
Congrats, Shawn! I raise my adult beverage in a toast to your perserverance! May your mismatched metric gear train and Imperial leadscrew live long and prosper!
