just more questions
what i was wondering does any body own or have used a reversing
tapping chuck of the vintage of thorens?
It has gradations at the top from 0 to 13 i think. which i think you are
meant to adjust the chuck according to the size of the tread tapped?
does it have a clutch is this normally adjusted buy holding the top with
pin spanner and turning the aluminum barrel?
whats the purpose of the grub screw in the middle of the barrel and the
threaded hole in the lower part of the chuck.

Aaron,
have a look at this: Tapping Head - Tapmatic 30X Automatic Reversing - YouTube
or
THREADING WITH A PROCUNIER TAPPING HEAD tubalcain - YouTube
they might explain it all to you. You are on the right track though. The biggest thing with them is that they reverse when you take the pressure off or lift them up with a drill opress handle.Cheers,
Joe
