🔍 Key Concepts

• Thread dial indicator divisions and what the numbered lines represent in relation to the lead screw • The difference between cutting odd vs. even threads per inch (TPI) on a lathe • How engaging the half‑nut at specific marks keeps the tool in the same groove of the thread each pass

💭 Think About

• Look at how many numbered positions are on the dial, and think about how many revolutions it takes for the dial to repeat the same relationship with the lead screw when cutting an odd‑numbered thread. • Ask yourself: for an odd TPI, do you need to re‑engage at exactly the same mark every time, or can you use a group of marks that always put you back in phase with the original thread? • Consider what the unnumbered spaces or potential intermediate lines (if present on other dials) are used for, and whether they would keep you in phase on an odd‑numbered thread.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify how many numbered lines you see on the illustrated dial and whether there are any unnumbered lines between them. • Recall/visualize the standard rule chart for thread dial use: which marks are allowed for odd TPI versus even TPI. • Before choosing, make sure your option matches both: (1) only marks that keep the carriage in phase, and (2) the fact that the dial shown has only four numbered positions.
