Does anyone know if I go up a size in thread but keep the pitch the same, will this affect my increments on my hand wheel?
To make it easier for the machining of my cross side screw I would like to go from 3/4-6 to 7/8-6
Because there's a section on the front of the screw bigger than the minor dia of 3/4 ,
So buying a length of 3/4 acme rod isn't an option but if I got 7/8 rod there's plenty on the minor to machine off but I'm not sure whether that will balls up my hand wheel increments?
