3D printed geardsworks well for threading and cost less then $1 to make
(assuming you have a printer)
Yes gears are hard to design but all the gear companies have CAD files on
their websites. I just go to McMaster Carr and download the CAD file, do
some trivial mods to make the hubs and face

I haven't engaged the gearbox on my South Bend Heavy 10L in over 10 years. My
ELS does all the Z axis motion including metric/imperial threading and is
especially handy for boring into a blind hole. Yes, I still have to look at
the X axis dial and if I want tapers then I engage the South Bend

I wanted to modify my lathe to cut metric threads. But it requires 7
gears. Of course none of them are commercially available. I don't really
