I have made a few threaded parts on my lathe so far. Although I feel like I went the long way.
Watching videos and reading here and there Im not finding what I am looking for
Lets say im threading a 10mm X 1.50 external thread
Major minor dia of
With the compound set at 29.5’
How do or should you even be dialing in the minor dia with the compound dial. To cut 1.592 mm thread depth to reach the minor dia? Or .0626
Im very new to machining and all the math involved.
I just feel like I am missing something for that ahha , thats how its done. ?
