More than likely he is trying to be clever and creating a long thread?
Is it half term yet?

I reckon that he wants to be the new Snozzle Durante and be the 'Man
who found the Lost Chord' Have I scored?
Or perhaps he is 'Half Nuts' said he Clasping his hands.

Nothing wrong with that.

Many thanks for all you comments / suggestions. I will treat them with
the contempt that they so richly deserve.
I have no idea what happened, but I cannot post 14 times in 1
minute...PC error mayhap? Cannot remove them though
Anyway now to my original question
This may sound a bit of a numb question,but.... I have just received another box of bits to go with the Viceroy I was given last year. Includes chucks, dial gauges, tooling, grease guns etc. {more boxes come to light the deeper the shed is explored!!}. Anyway, one of the items is a Tailstock die holder. Takes 2 sizes of die [boxes of dies as well, he he he ] Question, this is where it may sound numb, do I use the lathe in back gear at slowest speed? do I hold the side handle or let it rest against the bed? Just seems to me that there may be 'quite a lot of torque' when lathe is running if I have got hold of the side arm!
Many thanks

then turn chuck back half a turn and repeat? or do I rest the arm against the
bed and turn chuck by hand? I know it sounds dumb but I really cannot get my
head around it!
Many thanks
also...any clues how I can remove my erroneous posts? Ta!!

Either rest the arm against the bed and turn the chuck by hand, or hold the
chuck and turn the arm.
Six or half a dozen, how you do it. Main thing is you still cut the threads
manually, as Charles said, it's just a method of holding the die inline.
As for the extra posts, even if you can delete them of the original server, they'll probably remain on numerous other ones. I wouldn't worry about them.

What Newsreader are you using?

Google Groups? or am I [and I hate to say it] on the wrong thread??

I think so - Google just nick our posts off UseNet and make them available
on the Web. Access is slicker using a NewsReader designed to access
UseNet. There is one built into Outlook Express you can play with to see
the difference, but there are better ones around.
