supergrind 2000 issues

I'm puzzled by some of the comments about the thread on the universal support. Looking at my own, bought some years ago as a replacement for the original unthreaded support, it certainly seems to be a standard M12 thread ie 1.75 mm pitch with metric 60 degree thread form. Did the "square-cut" or acme threads referred to above come along later? I can't see any reason why these special threads should have been thought necessary for the microadjust function.

Perhaps a Tormek representative would clarify this?

The acme thread is better locked in place with the locking screws; the solution is even more radical in the Planer Blade Attachment.
