But you could reverse at Fast mode instead of slow.

It is easier to single point a thread if you mount your cutter up side down and run the lathe in reverse. Then you dont need to worry about crashing into the shoulder. And for crying out load speed that thing up.
I have cut may threads on a manual lathe it works just fine to plunge straight in with a carbide insert. 29deg compound angle is what they teach in school but most folks in the trade go in @ 90.deg works fine and much less math.

yes it’s slow,remember it is a big 24mm thread in stainles steel and I have not fucked it up meaning it has not had to be done twice

this machine has no start dial on it!

It’s probably a lathe meant for inch threading, meaning the chasing dial is useless when cutting metric threads.

the tip being used is a metric 60 degree TIN coated thread cutting insert

It seems like you don’t like to disengage the leadscrew. Like my self. Just afraid we losing so much time with forward reverse forward reverse.
