Is this possible on a harbor freight mini lathe? I'm not a threading guru and it isn't in the manual, but I figure maybe it's because it's not a common pitch. Is there a way to do it?
 
Thanks chuck! That was awesome. I had to bookmark it. I never thought to look for a threading calculator. I suppose it makes sense as they have calculators for everything else lol.
 
There are other calculators, both online and downloadable programs, but the LMS one has never let me down.
It even gives good results on the metric threads. I turned and single pointed a copy of the spindle thread on my 7x14 to make a spider using the gear combo from that calculator.
