That 3 ft-lb torque really helps quantify things. BTW, the Grizzly is the 20LV with a different column, the Lathemaster is based on the 25LV (a bigger mill?). I asked Grizzly a couple of weeks ago and they tell me they have true-inch screws, but their .02 graduations might imply otherwise. We'll see.
