Hi Paul Backlash brass nut can be cut using Sherline hand turn screw threading. I did my Acme thread cut of 8 tpi of dia 14mm successfully. One needs to grind...
Hi everyone, This is just a curiosity question but I would like to know how a Sherline chuck is centred on the spindle as opposed to a Taig that uses the...
Paul, You could have ACME tap for plastic for almost nothing if you could find this ACME size all-thread - turn taper, mill slots, grind - it would work well...
