Wow Mike! Watching this is just in time for me! I've just made the screw-on glue blocks to make your Acorn Box. And wondered how I'd get the thread setup consistent! Thank you Chefware and Mike for this terrific idea!
Thanks Mike ! This is exactly what I was talking about. A seasoned turner learns something that a greenie may never think of and then he shares it with the world.
Great job Mike!! I’m a machinist buy trade cut a lot of different kind of treads good training video to help out all the woodturners, love your videos keep them coming.😊
Thanks, Mike, all too easily understood and appreciated. FWIW I am now glad I built my own jig, using a 9"x16tpi allthread rod mounted on cross slides running perpendicular to the bed. Two depth adjusting screws can be contra rotated to lock the drive screw parallel to the lathe bed at the required depth, and I can cut multiple inserts from one setting. My cutter has a straight shank held in a screw on Jacobs chuck. Pleased to have saved >60% on purchase price of a proprietary jig. It works well. Otherwise, we all can cut pipe threads!. Bernard.
@@MikePeaceWoodturning I've found your 2017 video detailing your shop designed jig, Mike, and indeed have been lucky with my own effort (eg slop and nut facing).. Extremely interesting and comprehensive, including George Washington's comment. In England we have a saying that a camel is a horse designed by a committee! Bernard.
I don't have the jig, but I understood your whole explanation. Great video. BTW, if anyone was wondering why he was fussing about, keeping the heavy chucks on when test fitting the top to the box... It is because the top, and bottom, are already registered and centered, on axis, to those chucks to finish turning those pieces after the threading is done. It saves having to get them centered again. And maybe not getting them completely centered, which would throw off the balance of the top and bottom when screwed together for final finishing.
I have not yet gotten a threading jig, but what you addressed here was one of my concerns with the Chefware jig, especially after having seen you have to remove the jig to do some fine tuning on the turning in one of your previous videos. I wondered how much fiddling there would be to get everything realigned. Looks like this addresses that, especially using the tail stock to get height right
I guess that cutter must have a MT, if it fits in the spindle without the collet chuck. Do you have a MT ER2 collet, or does something close work well enough to hold the cutter? Another great video!!! Wish I had a threading jig!
My simple method is to use a steel ruler and place it almost vertically with the lower edge placed snug against the lathe bars and the top edge snug against the side of the jig. It is very quick, works every time.
I think it would be easier to use 2 chucks (1 on jig and 1 on lathe) get a 3/8" steel machine ground dowel pin and lock it in both chucks. Tighten everything up and your lined up now.
Maybe. But you would need three chucks since you already have your piece to thread in a chuck and you do not want to remove the project and lose the registration. I appreciate the comment.

Thanks for your continued support, Billy!
Food for thought...maybe I need one of those.
Maybe a want and not a need?
I’ve been watching a variety of videos on this jig. It seems like a larger hand wheel would be nice for the feed. Thanks for the demo.
Yes it would. I made one for one jig.
Great explanation of how to true up the work piece to the lathe axis. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.
Thanks, Glen.
Thanks again Mike! I bought that collet chuck after seeing you use it. I’m very happy with it.
Good to hear!
Great video !
Thanks, Mike! Appreciate the effort it takes to do these videos.
Thanks, Lewis!
WOW I have not seen anything like it before. Makes sense. Thanks for that. 👍 Rob
Thanks for watching, Robert.
Great info Mike.
Good tip Mike.
Thanks, Tim. 👍 Are you using a threading jig?
@@MikePeaceWoodturning yes I use the ChefwareKits jig that I bought at Turning Souther Style Symposium in 2019 and it works very well.

Thanks, Emmett!
That is something I have always struggled to understand, this makes threads understandable and feel like attempting
Go for it!

You had better luck than I did with diy jig, Bernard.

Rematch the first part of the video where I showed the collet chuck I use.
@@MikePeaceWoodturning got it now.
Mike, where did you get that collet chuck?

Thanks, Richard. A.ways good to find something that works for you. I will try your method as well.

IF YOU USE A FACEPLATE SCREWED TO THE SPINDLE ITS EASIER THAN THE BOARD.
Great tip! Thanks for sharing.
Looks complicated.
Not really but more complicated than one that simply slides in the bed ways.
