@tryally I'm going to try this setup with a Sherline 1 amp stepper motor with 10 tooth drive pulley and high torque position on spindle pulley. I wish I had the 7 amps stepper motor and driver box.

You are totally correct.
Are two stepper motor, X (normal) and Z (more strong) I use any stepper motor com 5 to 7Ap for Z axis.
This is a simple way but very eficient for thread with Sherline lathe machines.
Here I use the original Sherline gears for threading too, and with my modification the results are fantastics.
Any questions please write to me okay.
Best wishes fro Brazil.

@tryally Yes, I see in a previous video the gear set that synchronizes the spindle with the X-axis, that's where the magic happens. I noticed that Sherline sells the gears for threading. So, one stepper motor drives the spindle and X-axis. There also appears to be another stepper motor for the Z-axis because the tool pulls away when the spindle reverses, and moves back into cutting position when the spindle reverses again. So the CNC drives two axes. Very nice.

Well, my thread system is very simple, the stepper motor is only for move the handwheel. (7Ap stepper motor)
I dont use the software synchronize the X-axis with the spindle, I use only the EMC 2 for all moviments of handwheel.
bonjour,1excellente video comme toujours ,tres bien expliquer,bonne continuation,bien cordialement thierry.

A fantastic production as usual. You always show every step in detail with great camera work. If I want to be inspired to do something with my lathe, I usually watch one of your videos. Thanks :)
