[modeleng] Re: coarse threads

 Jesse, my old Logan-made lathe will cut 27 tpi.

I wonder why?  There is no use for 27tpi except in 1/8" pipe threads.  Seems 
that it would require a bunch of extra gears to the QC box- - -- -or does 
your lathe not have QC?  Easy to do with change gears, but apparently not 
for a QC box lathe.
