One of a couple different iterations, but>

An approach to threading on a Levin D .  I’m in the process of buttoning up this long term project and have been able to thread drill rod with threads ranging between 1/4-20 & 0-80.  The controller will allow metric & ISO, left hand & right hand, custom thread requirements like 11-1/2 TPI, and if required switches over to auto feed , ie .001” / rev.  

It has been surprisingly useful, as I’ve been trying to locate some odd ball screws for a couple of projects, and been able to chuck up some stock and be creative.
