How To Thread A Blank With Your Mandrel

How To Thread A Blank With Your Mandrel
Niles ™mandrel threads onto the head stock spindle and has the unique tapered-cut flute making it the best self-tapping mandrel on the market. It has a 3/8″ x 16 tpi threaded stud that works with just about all the stoppers on the market and numerous other projects: ice cream scoop handles, shaving brushes, pizza cutters, etc. They have a black oxide coating for rust prevention. The neck or step below the threaded stud is 13/16″ diameter which matches the tops of all my stoppers. This mandrel does not use a draw bar. It comes with 2 nylon spacers (a spare because you will lose one!) which are used to help keep the wood from locking on the mandrel as you turn it. Use a 1 3/8″ wrench on the flats to start turning mandrel off the spindle.
