thread cutting machine

Hi Boys. here is a tool I built up about six months ago for cutting threads in wood I found a tool holder in the head stock tended to pull the timber when cutting threads in some timbers, So I built an attachment to clamp to my tool stand slide which can be turned to any angle I want to cut a thread & turns at eight thousand rpm driven with a one HP motor. It solved the problem of the pulling the timber, works well. I still use the tool I made some years ago to wind the timber past the thread mill the chuck fit to the thread on the end of the shaft . I have added pictures of both of the tools.
