Thread: Help needed with finding some information

Those were 1 inch 10 tip mostly I think. That’s what it looks like too.

Measure the dia as best you can , it will be in round numbers ie 1" or 1"1/8. The lay your rule along the thread and measure distance between the peaks, near enough if good enough. As Bruce has mentioned 1"x 10 tpi which is 1" BSF

Thank you so much I totally forgot about how to do that and I appreciate your time and effort thank you again Dan

Dan, Or better yet contact Hare n Forbes as the original wood lathes were Chinese generics all came with 1" x 10 tpi thread to the headstock they will confirm the specs

Hi I measured it and it was 1 inch but I'm only getting 8 teeth per inch but dose that include the starting slope as well but I'm thinking that contacting H&F is my best choice thank you so much I thought I'd post here incase someone had one still thank you all so much for your time and effort Dan

1” x 8tpi is also a common thread for lathes

Take a pic with an imperial ruler on the thread and I should be able to tell you if it’s 8 or 10 tpi

I will asap tomorrow thank you so much

Hi I hope that these are ok thank you so much for your time and effort Dan

I count that as 10tpi, even though there is only about 8 threads there, it’s how many you would have over the whole inch

Thank you so much for that as I wasn't sure and now the fun begins to get a few things I was thinking about either a Nova Scroll or similar or the vicmark

I will enjoy using it and making sure it lasts for years to come and any recommendations I'll gladly appreciate them and appreciate them thank you so much for your time and effort Dan
