Hey Eric, Yes the bone turning is a lot of fun, would be great to see others start working on this too. Curt worked with me on it and though I have not turned near as many bone turnings as Curt I really enjoy it. Hope you will join us. Kind Regards, Timothy J. Ziegler Ziegler WoodWork & Specialty

Curt, I am convinced that your idea of doubling the pitch on the lead screw will open up a lot of new possibilities and work just fine as long as you change out the half nut too. Hoo boy. Now I gotta buy a 5/8 x 8 acme tap! LOL! DanK On Wednesday, March 22, 2023 at 1:05:49 AM UTC-4 Curt Geor
