COOL!!! Thread milling, on a lathe, in wood - I love it. Not many people have done that, you are part of a vary exclusive club. One other thing that helps when tapping wood is to saturate the wood with thin CA glue. This effectively plasticizes the wood fibers and the wood will tap better. Don |

Hi Russell An interesting project, I have a number of hand drills, various in size and manufacture. Some have needed handles which were broken, which I have turned from hardwood, stained and varnished. I regularly use these and find they give much more control when drilling holes in softer materials. I have various drill bits permanently fitted, for drilling pilot holes in timber, and countersink bits to follow on. Well Done, Cheers David |
