I recently acquired my new toy and have a question
I have a Viceroy metric TDS1/16 BL
It has the 3mm lead screw and on the gearbox plate it has A to D of which I have B to D cogs
B=21
C=27
D=30
What would cog A be?
Also have another set which are 16,18,20,22,,24,28
Thanks for any info

Steve,
Welcome to the Viceroy owners club!
Does the 'BL' designate a long bed?
Regarding the gears:
See this thread - viewtopic.php?f=15&t=1061&hilit=thread+calculator
For the set to go with a 4-position gearbox, A= 24T
Looks like you also have part of the set to go with a 5-position gearbox - 16T (A), 18T (B), 22T (C), 24T (D), 26T (E), 27T(F), 35T (G)
Note that A-D are different tooth numbers for the 2 gearbox types!

Thanks a lot for the info
I can try a bit of thread cutting using the "A" setting in the gearbox
which of course is the threads I want
again thanks
not sure what BL means
when I've cleaned it up a bit more I'll post some pics
Cheers
