Hi Neale, plenty of vids online about using single point tools for thread milling but I'm also learning. I'm trying to explore cost effective tooling for it for my hobby use and also get my head around how many tools you would need and what the limitations are. I've been surprised at the pricing of them given they are nothing more complex than any other indexable cutter but I guess there are a lot less sold.
I've cut threads on my old manual lathe but its a slow process and if I can switch to a CnC mill then so much the better. Got to be one or the other with 75mm diameter threads, I'm not buying a tap that big!Last edited by Lloyd Barnes; 20-03-2017 at 06:16 PM.
