DIY Thread Chaser Tool for Damaged Threads - DIY Thread Tap

Can you make your own chasing tap to repair damaged threads? I show the process of making one, show the results, and give some tips on using this method.

This is such a good idea. I’m gonna make a whole set for my scooter building.

Thanks for being clear! Tip for people who will try this out, make sure to put a lot of grease, and do not force it! It will be a huge pain when it brakes!

Thanks so much. I had a motorcycle seat bolt that stripped the internals in the frame of the bike. This worked perfectly. Dremeled two slots in an 8mm bolt and pushed the stripped parts through. Works as new! Thanks so much.

awesome idea I would just put the nut on before using the angle grinder because sometimes it can be hard to get the nut back on cut threads, also if you get the chance I would replace that set screw with a hex one (flat blade screws should be illegal:)
