I just changed the base_thread back to 30,000 which appears to have made 
that work again, up to the max speed I actually allow in the planner. 
Thats about 12.75 IPM.  So that fixed that until I put the 5i25 in it.  
Anybody have a spare round tuit?

I won't say its hot in the shop building, but I took a bottle of that 
near beer (Miller64) I drink out and set it in front the the toy mills 
keyboard, then ground some off the back side of that internal threading 
tool and finished making the nut with the 27 tpi tapered thread.  
Reaching for that beer again, I swear it was doing a slow simmer.  It 
was still wet though, which at that point is what counted.

So now I have the lathe doing another all night job, making a 3/8 shaft 
out of a piece of 1/2" A2, so I can attach it to the front end of the 
crossfeed screw and have a connection to the handle on the front of the 
carriage on the sheldon.  Using a dremel, spinning a 2" fiber disk so 
the front face is touching at about a 5 degree angle. rpms about 
3500-4000 which the dremel should be able to do for a month or more.

BUT!! I just discovered we have once again lost the ability to pile up 
several lines of code in the MDI buffer, discovered by my pre-entering 
the next command I wanted it to do when that one was finished.  What 
happens is that the currently executing command is silently thrown away, 
and it instantly starts executing the new entry!

Bad dog, no biscuit.  Please put that back again.  Its at least as handy 
as sliced bread.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
