Manual Wood Threader, 1-1/2" (6 tpi)

These classic thread box & tap sets let you produce both screws and matching nuts in your favorite wood, so you can incorporate wooden fastening and tightening hardware into jigs, tools & toys. Operation is simplicity itself. Just buy or make a 1-1/2" dowel in the species of your choice and lock it in a vise. Slip the thread box on the end, and begin rotating clockwise to cut crisp, sharp threads. If the wood you're using tends to tear, a thorough wipe with mineral oil will solve that problem. Matching taps come with an adjustable steel handle for easy tapping. Two taps come with each kit, one for starting/through cutting, the other a bottoming tap for blind holes. Both taps & die cutter are easily resharpened when needed.
