PM 1228 left hand threading

Can't you loosen the screw that holds the thread dial indicator against the leadscrew and move it away? It only needs to be in contact with the lead screw when you're cutting threads.
 
I can look at that.
 
Looking at that diagram it looks like maybe there is enough range between the 2 idler gears for a neutral position? You could mod that shift plate to have a secure neutral position. I'm assuming you have to open the cover to access that lever but I'm sure you could make some kind of lever so that it sticks out of the cover. But you'd have to cut the cover.
 
Then make a kit & start selling them! :)
 
Whatever works :D
Pau hana, going home
 
Is it weird that I'm a mainlander & I understood it? :)
 
Yeah, but you've been adopted by us and you have a deeper connection, too, so I'm not surprised you caught it.
 
Pau is was like one of the first words I learned cause it was easy to remember. Second was "all buss up", when I heard that I was like wth are you saying! :D

But the street names over there, I still have no idea how to pronounce them! :)
