This allows for deeper meshing of the worm/wormwheel. it also allows a straight cut cutter to keep meshed during the cutting.

Dave, I think this is the biggest stumbling block for me.
The worm/wheel never looks completely meshed.
I have never done this pre-hobbing groove yet.
Next one I try I will give this method a go.
