Looking for leadscrew for Rek-O-Kut lathe

I'm looking for a 220LPI leadscrew or coarser for my M-5 Rek-O-Kut lathe. I've got a 120LPI but it's very fine for my noob cutting skills. Does anyone have a coarser one for sale?

Do you mean something less than 120LPI if your struggling with a 120LPI screw a 220LPI will not be of any help as it is close to been the top end of cutting with screws.

Maybe 100LPI or 80LPI might be better.

I can get screws made but only in sets of 10....

Thanks! But I would like to have the capability for both pitches.

Maybe someone has another M-12S for sale?

Thanks again.
