Top View---  Showing the first two gear changes.  I modeld this after Sherline's gear chart. Just look for the thread you want to cut on the chart and set the levers. The exception to this is that you do not use the "B" and "F" or "G" gears. The back cover has been removed for all the pictures taken.
Front View---  Showing the second two gear changes. Here is where you select the "E" gear and Left or Right hand threads.  The (L-R) lever eliminates the "F" and "G" gears totaly
Front View---  Showing the final gear change. Here is where you select the "D" gear.
Back View (cover removed)---  Now you can see what is happening on the inside.  I cut 17 gears for this project as well as using all the gears from the sherline threading Kit.  I could have just cut more gears but hey, I already had these.

Here is a closer view of the first and last gear changes.
