    I'm getting ready to thread holes and bolts for a Cradle I'm doing. The only thing I know for sure is that you need to lubricate them, while cutting. Mine are hand held.

    Threading wood in a wood lathe

    I am going to build a attachment to cut thread in a wood lathe. I also can cut thread with a router in this attachment. I sure hope it will work so I can make boxes with threaded tops. Has any one done this before? If yes what kind of luck did you have?

    Fred,

    In order to be a bono-fide member of SMC you must use a real first and last name. Please PM Jackie Outten with that information and she will update your registration.

    If you're gonna use fifty-cent words, you should at least spell them right. It's bona fide, not bono fide. No hyphen, either.

    I'm learning how to hand-chase threads with a set of internal and external thread chasers. I'm using these, made by Crown:

    I'm a hands-on kinda guy, and it's fun. I'm pretty good at making external threads, but haven't had much success with internals yet.

    Fred,
    Your plan to cut threads on a wood lathe sounds cool to me, and I sure look forward to seeing what you come up with.
