GOD BLESS you sir! You may have just saved my tractor because I must make a stud for the engine to save it since the studs are DISCONTINUED. THANKS SO MUCH.
I do not like half hearted praise.This video is simply brilliant if you do not have a lathe.Well done and thankyou very much.You have been most helpful and I really do appreciate you taking the time to post.BRAVO!!!
Was going to use E-clip for a 3/4 inch steel rod. Making my own Woodworking bench vice. With this tip, I just might make one for each of dyes, stamp, anodize and make their own case. Awesome setup 👍.
Great tip I've been troubling over this for weeks. Cutting 2 threads in 1/2 inch SS, 1 UNC the other UNF. Both fail. I can make this work for me. Thanks heaps
ADAPTOR, nice trick. I ended up using a drill guide block---one of those cheap plastic blocks with steel guides. Was able to thread a 3/8 rod about 2" without problem
So glad I found your comment! I don't have the means to make this really cool thread adapter, but I do have a drill guide block. I am threading 1/8" brass rods and the threads rarely come out straight. Thanks for the alternative solution, will be trying it out asap!
While this device dedicated to one diameter only (unless bushed for smaller) works it does present several drawbacks. It requires the die stock to be weakened! Holes drilled. It requires a long length in order to be self guiding! The block can be smaller. It is bulky and cumbersome! Limited ways to reduce this aspect. There are die stocks (Quality) that have an adjustable dia self guiding mechanism built into them that is compact, requires only a twist of a ring and thumb screw tightened. If you are going to be doing a lot of this I suggest the quality tooling route. John.
It definitely does the job! Would be better with replaceable inserts for different diameter rods though. For my purposes, just playing around with RC cars, it's usually enough to put a little spirit level on the tool and try and get it straight at the start before the tool has fully bitten, there's a small window of opportunity to make corrections. Not exact by any means but good enough for basic uses.
Drunken threads, make a 30 deg chamfer on the rod end, turn the die over so the chamfer reduces the cutting load and so makes it easier to control the start and check with a square.
Just drill one side of your die holder and bolt on an inch by an inch right angle piece of ali. Slot the ali to accommodate all sizes of rod to be threaded so it can be slid to the side of the rod and bolted down tight to the holder. When you start cutting, keep the downward piece of ali against the rod. A guaranteed true 90 degree cut every time on all sizes of rod. To make it even better, drill both sides of the die holder like in this video and use 2 right angle pieces of ali...👍
Alright, I made this too but with a drill press and I got a good result putting an M8x1.25 thread on a rod. I made it with M3 rod. Be careful though when drilling the 3mm holes and you can see there is an uneven surface. But as this die holder is aluminum, it's easy to file away the edges to have a flat surface for drilling.
Simple drill bushing formula is bushing length = 2X work diameter, anything longer does not contribute to greater accuracy, i.e. a 4 mm diameter will only need an 8 mm long guide bushing for maintaining 90 degree perpendicularity.
Great idea if you make a 2.0 you could make the block larger and bore the hole to an inch and make bushings for all of your dye sizes so it will work or more than just that dye size now you just need a tap one as well
well is an old vid but i had to imput an observation..The dia holder opening should be facing the block..ie the work.its designed so the dia won't push out of the holder...cheers..
Thank you so much Sir! The idea earned you an avid follower, I wish I could like this project 100k times

I had thought of this method when creating spiral threads was always misaligned (not straight). Thank you.
I can never unhear this music life is over
Great tutorial. I have to cut an unusual thread for an older saw and want it to be straight.Thank you.
Wow, I'm having that exact problem threading 10mm rod right now. I will definitely put this tip to work tomorrow. Thanks

Hell of of a good idea 💡
Nice guide but you will need to insert bushings in the aluminum block or use a different one for each thread size.
Just put a drill chuck in there and tighten it until it almost clamps the rod and boom! Adjustable..
I wonder if a hardwood block would work instead of aluminum? I have a lot of maple laying around so Ima give it a go.

This is a great idea finally someone with a brain thanks
Nice work! Very helpful video. Thank you.

I know right

This is mind blowing! extra weight keep the balance and from damage.

great job explains everything I did not know.
ADAPTOR ¡¡Excelente idea...!! --- Muchas gracias por compartirnos tan buena idea. Felicidades.
Good idea,good tool,easy to used .not running, stables.easy to handle.
Wow! That's cool, thank You for uploading!
This is a great idea to tread a crank shaft on a predator 22hp motor and keep it straight
This project is very good!

Awesome 👍🏼👍🏼
So you have to make one for each die? Sounds like more work than i want to do, but thanks. I enjoy watching someone being creative.
Nice one dude..👍👍
Great idea if you make a 2.0 you could make the block larger and bore the hole to an inch and make bushings for all of your dye sizes so it will work or more than just that dye size now you just need a tap one as well
Very good idea! You will need to make a jig for each tread size.
Good Boy! Very clever
Smart idea 💡
Cool idea. But you would need to create a different block for each die right?
obviously works good, and would be great for production work but a lot of effort for the weekender or multiple sizes
Amazing solution! Thanks a lot
So simple, very clever
ingenious! Making one today.
So nice idea
"There is nothing pleasant abandoning protection provided by dreams and hope"
What if you're threading a short bolt.?
Great video.
Great idea, but face the stock with the shoulder to the back. That way you prevent the die coming out and the shoulder will take the pressure.
Gerry Cummins éuuuuuuuuuu

Great idea
Pretty cool. Great job.
Good job .
What happens if you don’t have a threaded bolt to start from? I’m about to do a weird size, M22x2.0
Good Idea!
well is an old vid but i had to imput an observation..The dia holder opening should be facing the block..ie the work.its designed so the dia won't push out of the holder...cheers..
Nice very nice
Can you make a CNC threaded rod would those things Can th You have a really good design for it at be made for accuracy
Very intelligent idea
with a different diameter pin you have to do another piece.
Да говно.
Put a drill chuck where the hole would be and it will tighten to any hole size.
Brilliant !
good idea ! like !
Everyone complaining about the music and hear I was grooving the whole time.
from Iraq well done
hand drilling guide holes? what if they are not all aligned?
Bel colpo, si vede che sei del mestiere. Complimenti.
only drawback: the rod to be threaded must have enough length to accept the device. Clever however
this works only for long screws,not short ones
No shit Sherlock.
is there anything like this for sale on amazon ebay?
search drilling and tapping guide
you used some type of grease instead of a fluid. what was it?
Very nice
No square, just eyeballing and hand held drill at that. Wowww!!! Lopsided guides too for sure
The die is facing the wrong way, the starting cut thread on the side of the die should be facing towards the item your cutting
The wrench is upside down, flip it and the die is all good !
the same thing would also work without the die in backwards, possibly ...?
Best....
Good Job
how do you know the die is true. but to be fair not bad jig for amateurs use
Awesome!!!!
Love your idea
bravo ottima idea
FAQIN GENIUS!
Good making thanks
Nice trick
cool idea,tnx😀
Ap Jo hath se gumate ho vo device muje by karna he ye kaha milega. Usaka name kya he.please reply
Super
Owesome technique but u can thred only one size with this tool pls make an udjustable tool that fit on any size
Ok. He will cause you said so
Perfect solution.
Brilliant idea, thanks for sharing
Neat!
GOOD IDEA !!!!!!!!!
question can I use it to repair damage thread?
very good
Very good job
Super Video! Like,Like,Like!
excelent !
Nice I"ll make one of these for every die in my set
Now all I have to do is play this music to make aligned threads.
I want to see this done with SS Round Rod
А если на короткой шпильке нарезать ? то как сделать?
thanks for share!Nice
This is good!
186 people didn't watch the last half of the video... Awesome.
What is the name of that tool
