Does anyone have nylon halfnuts available for VMS series lathes? If not, and I have a machinist make some does anyone need one? The first one is the most expensive of course!

just be aware...it is a non standard saw-thread...
not that easy to make. but not impossible to make.
but normally you need a tool specially made for it.
i have only 1-2 new old stock which i need as a reference....

good luck and let us know if you did it...
