If you have room? for it, a sweep elbow would be a better
choice than a standard elbow.

I'd probably do it on the drill press, but to keep it a lathe
project, you could mount the elbow on the carriage & use a
boring head or suitable hole saw chucked in the spindle.

Re: Mounting PVC Fitting for Boring
You are correct.? However, I will still be able to use my lathe.? The 1 1/2" pipe will need to be bored to fit both the tool port and the vacuum hose end.

I decided to go ahead and get an imperial lead screw for my lathe.
I looked around and could not find the imperial leadscrew for a cj0618 on AliExpress or Ebay.
Only the 1.5mm screw was available. However, I did find the 16TPI screw and half nuts on Grizzly's?
site. The price was pretty good (about $86 US) and it shipped for free. I will be getting that in
a few days.?
?
Thank you all for your suggestions and comments.

Re: Mounting PVC Fitting for Boring
Turn the jaws around first . Then I would drill a hole through
the 90 centers with one of the openings & run a piece of all
thread or a long bolt through the spindle with a washer & a
nut on each end I think that the jaws would just keep the 90 from
moving , not sure ya will be able to get much clamp pressure
that's why I suggest the bolt/allthread . Ya don't need much speed
to get this done . Ya could also? cut one side of the 90 off &
glue the original bored part to the 90 with PVC cement .

Re: Motor Cuts using Steady Rest
It¡¯s a LMS 4100 upgraded to a 16¡± bed - it has a brushless motor. I know it has an over-current cut-off and that¡¯s what¡¯s kicking in. What I can¡¯t figure is why I¡¯m might be over-feeding with a 0.010¡± cut with the standard lead screw rate of 0.004¡±/rev. It seems to cut-out less with Tap-Magic vs WD40. I tried 350-700rpm but the rpm range doesn¡¯t seem to matter.
?
Might it be the tool is forcing the rod towards the rear steady rest finger and the friction goes up too high??

Re: Motor Cuts using Steady Rest
Which 7x16 is it?? That doc is for the older Brushed DC motors.
If it's a BLDC 7x16 it'd be a different drive and motor...

Re: Motor Cuts using Steady Rest
Is it only when using a steady rest that this happens? You probably need to check the amps.

The I purchased last came with metric lead screw 2.00mm?
?
I do most time both inch and metric with dies.?
?
If doing projects that needs both inside and outside threads I just 2.00, 1.00 or 0.50 mm pictures.? I do not use a thread dial.?
?
It is easier to metric pitch?
When I was doing machine work I did not have choice?

I have a handwheel not a crank so it no problem with power reverse.? I have cut many threads this way.?
The problem with cutting threads of a system different from the lead screw is that the gears can't be disengaged & re-engaged in the same position. You have to keep them engaged the whole time and retract the tool when returning the carriage for another cutting pass. With a hand crank for more low speed torque, a power return can be a little exciting ;-)
