  • A proper internal thread cutting tool will leave a much smoother finish: amzn.to/2AiJaIo
    (I ordered one, but didn't want to wait until next week for it to arrive to make this video)
    Good enough for what it's going on.

      Nope, it's annealed. Hardening generally requires the right steel (enough carbon content) and a quench--and tempering after the quench to avoid brittleness.

    Jesus man you really struck a cord with the nut nazis. I didn't know it was a capital offense to to modify a nut on a Sunday afternoon, for the bench grinder you just got working, with the tools you already own, and enjoy using, because the only store in your town is already closed and its 3 days before the special 9/16-23 lefthand nut would arrive. You should be ashamed of yourself.
