    Metric threading with inch based leadscrew

    Noticing recent posts mentioning 127 tooth conversion gears I thought it may be useful to show a different method using standard gears, namely a
    54T pegged with a 44T giving a very close conversion for most thread lengths.
    This is not my idea but taken from a site called Workshop Protects which seems to no longer exist, fortunately I took screenshots of it.
