Metal Lathe

Lathe settings to produce metal screws?
At what setting does a lathe have to be set in order to produce 13 screw threads per inch on a metal screw, number setting specifically?
You have to adjust the speed of the gears on the gearbox. There should be a large number follow by a small number under it.

You want to pay attention to the large number specifically 13, and adjust it to that number. There are many other steps to it then just this, like the speed of the power feed, and angle of the threading tool bit and amount you cut in every pass and how far you cut in. If you have never done threading before it will be difficult the first time. I am guessing you are either making V Threads or Standard Threads.
Next time list the type of lathe you have.
