Hi Everyone I'm happymonkey.
I love everything about woodcraft, I have a wood lathe for woodturning, a couple of carving tools and a pyrography tool.
I love everything about making your own tools but have not made many.
I built me own wood threading cutting tool with the help of my local mens shed to cut extremal threads on a dowel for the thread size of my lathe which is 1.1/4" x 8tpi as I could not buy one myself, I could only find a threading tap for that size.
I want to eventually build a threading jig and a ball turning jig for different sizes of turned boxes.
Other than that I will have to see.
Thanks Tim

Hi Tim - welcome to HomemadeTools.net :welcome:
Sounds like you are having some fun. :) Post some pics of that thread cutting tool if you have any; I'm sure people would like to take a look!

A happy monkey is a good monkey! :cool:
Definitely post some shots of that die. What's next on your build list?
