Thanks again Capt Eddie! I keep returning to your earlier videos on basic turnings using them as references that I'm not sure of... Always a GREAT source of info! I'm attempting a turning I haven't turned in some time and needed to 'renew' my 'knowledge?', so I referred to your older videos for a wonderful source of info! Thanks sooo much for your knowledge and info for those who are 'weekend and retired' turners!!! Soooo happy to see you're still around and giving us 'newbies' such sound advice!!! Prayers and thanks for all you do! Safe turning to you always!
Cool, What I've done in the past is mix it in the hole made for the nut,(eliminates the 3x5 and stick,or what ever used for mix)and then I go to the farm supply shop and ask them for the plastic plugs from the hydraulics hoses to keep the epoxy out of the threads,they fit good and are reusable.Thanks for the info Cap n.
Big help Eddie, I was needing more face plates and thought about the threaded wood type. This is much more substantial and no more expensive figuring the cost of the tap! By the way John Cameron Swayze gave the Timex a licking and it kept on ticking.
Another great video Capt. Eddie. I found 1" 8T nuts on Amazon for $14.90/10pk with free shipping and tax.They have a number of large sizes, hardness', and finishes at reasonable prices.
hey Eddie, Im new to wathcin your videos. I just got done gluing 2 3" D 3/4 thick scraps one threaded one not..you ever made a faceplate this way?. I got the 1x8 tap for $13 on 50% sale. the wood used is wild cherry that went to sh#^ when i moved to the dry side of WA state so hey I planed one side and used those sides t glue. advantage of mine is that I DONT HAVE A CHUCK. these i can just throw away. If it gets stuck i could hammer it til it split! I like your idea but i had everything handy. the 7/8 hole was made by an old brace and bit. I will tel you how it works out!
Eddie. Another idea for mixing and applying your epoxy. Make use of two things that most of us have around the place these days - expired credit ( and other plastic credit sized) cards, and old CDs. Cutting your old credit card in half diagonally (the best way to ensure against re-use or fraud) produces two great applicators. They can be used more than once as the cured epoxy does not adhere well and can be scraped off. The CDs make great disposable mixing bases. The epoxy sticks pretty well, but you can usually get three or four mixes on the one CD. I use these all the time with great results.
I'm not the greatest computer person in the world but what I'm trying to find out where do I go to to make them for our troops if you put it on this website here hey let me know
Hi Cap'n, any reason you don't just 'tap' the blocks and save buying the nuts? Don't forget lots of your audience aren't in the US and don't have easy 'hardware' access ;-) Keep up the good work.

Pleasantly distracted by your dog playing with the soccer ball. Just love it. Happy Anniversary!!!!
Great video Eddie, good to see you back.
Seeing Cap'n Eddie again is like meeting an old friend.
Eddie, Good video! You always come up with clever ideas or ways to accomplish
something.
Cheers
Hey, how about a shop tour?
