That's a great project Theo!
You wouldn't believe it but I came across your website the other day and was very interestedly checking out this mount build. I really love what you have done so far, and will be keen to see how you progress.
I love your way of doing lathe work with the mill, I have made a few worm gears for my horse shoe mount on a mill as well.
How will you make the ACME thread gears? Do you need a special ACME thread tap or will the ACME thread worm mesh with with the gear cut with a normal tap?
Cheers
Jo
