Thanks Huffed,
I didn't even consider the manual threading ... I have the shoptask 3 in 1 and although workable, the threading feature on this machine is quite awkward to work. But since it has CNC with Mach2 and is quite responsive with servos, I would like to do this for the collector as a learning process.
Now, that 1/4 turn you talk of..... would this "offset" so to speak be done all by Mach2? Would I tell Mach2 to adjust 90 degrees for the next thread..and so on?
Thanks again!
John
P.S. I would like to add that the collector, my brother, has one complete set of the tool as ahown, but is missing the insert for the accompaning receiver.
