dw's Turning #2: Need some help from the Lathe guru's.

I recently restored a Walker Turner lathe. So the next thing is to get beyond the basic turnings. So I need some advice, help and guidance if you would be so kind.


First, I need to figure out what the threads are. I know its 1” x something. It’s less than an inch long, so if I measure 1/2” I get 7 threads, so I’ll assume its 14.

If that’s not right, somebody let me know.


Searches show there is nothing with anything close to that thread size and count, so how do I get from what I have to Turing plates, bowls and the like?


I know its a 2 MT, but that doesn’t seem to help.
