I agree with the above, this looks to be a good start to an interesting series. I could use at least a couple of these wooden screws.

Great vid but about a week late posting it for me I’m afraid. I just ordered a wood thread cutting tap/die kit…

I had followed your bench blog and forgot about your shop made version. The information could still be useful though. I was also wanting to make a left hand threaded screw and nut and I don’t think a left hand wood cutting tap & die set is commercially available.

Look forward to the next installment.

That’s great. Looking forward to the next instalments. Thanks for sharing with the rest of us.

Great! Looking foward to learn how to make them screws, always wondered how they were done.

-- Just because you’ve always done it that way doesn’t mean it’s not incredibly stupid.

Thank you for posting this video. It came at an opportune time. I have recently embarked on the journey to understand how to make wooden theads. I had considerd making a thread box but wasn’t sure how to do it. I will be following this series very closely.

This is really very generous of you to take the time to make these videos and to share this information. Nothing beats seeing someone demonstrate a technique for it to really sink in. Let me add my thanks to you for this tutorial.

Any suggestions on wood type to be used for the screw and nut?

Any hardwood would probably be fine. I use hard maple.

Great first video on this topic. This will be much better than what was shown on an older episode of the WoodWright’s Shop. Thanks,
