    Main ballache will be restraining the reaction arm. There's nothing obvious to anchor it to on my machine, as the quill disappears back into the head where it needs to be to find its home switch.

    I may need to figure this out shortly, as I will soon have a shit load of M4 and M5 threads to do and a cordless drill doesn't seem to be the way to go. I need to get my act together...

    Some bald guy on the Tormach channel has done an intro video to it. As he points out, the feedrate is the rpm times the pitch and the retract rate needs to be double the feedrate.
