I’ve been woodworking for well over 45 years and hopefully have gained some insights into ways of doing things. This is the first video of yours that YT has suggested. I’m sure you’ll accept that the cinematic quality of your video is not the highest - but, actually, it’s the woodworker I’m watching not the quality of the video. Of course, stylish videos can be easier to watch but, what I’m trying to say is that an average video doesn’t put,e off watching an interesting woodworker. Making your own tools is very satisfying but I guess I’m of the school that wants to make furniture, boxes and not the tools to make them. For my wooden threads, I just use a normal tap and die set. But, if you get your pleasure from problem solving making tools, then I’ll watch that anyway. I wish you good luck with your channel. I will dip back in and watch another one.

No sir, I accept constructive criticism and opinions. Especially from people with more experience. People should be able to as long as the person isn't being a jerk. I'm trying to improve all aspects of my videos as I go along the way, including the quality of the video itself. As far as the focus of the video is concerned, I like making boxes and other useful items also but I really also like trying to make tools, especially ones that aren't common. It's pretty fun. Thanks for the comment and watching!

As a engineers' patternmaker some 40 odd years ago a client wanted a set of 1 inch dia wooden nuts and bolts. The only real difference with your design for the die was to have the cutter in the side. This was to have easy adjustment for the depth of cut and to exchange blades for various thread designs if necessary. Within less than a year the tooling to produce the wooden nuts and bolts had "disappeared." Someone must have wished to have it! This is a credit to you - well done!

I always found this tool and some other ones interesting and decided I wanted to try and make one. Surprisingly there is very little information out there that I could find about them,so there were a few details I had to figure out through trial and error. But I think I got it,so on to the next one. Thank you for the comment!

Awesome build bro, i’ve heard if you soak the piece you’re making thread out of in oil, it’ll be easier

Yes sir. I usually do at least 24 hrs. And a really sharp blade makes it easier to cut across the grain. It's a simple device but fun seeing it come to life. Thanks!

Ezra your channe is taking off nicely. I’ve been focusing on my golf channel over my woodworking because it’s just been doing better, takes less work and is more fun

Cool. Didn't know you had a golfing channel. I'll tell one of my friends at work. He's a golfer. Hopefully my channel keeps gaining traction. I'm trying to keep coming up with ideas and writing them down. Hopefully I keep improving. Thanks!

@@Juan-hr7ol ive been successfully using cards to direct people. Or asking them in the title to read the description and directing them to another video. I think having the keyword you target in your name can be useful. My channel is just Ian Baldwin Golf. Thanks for the shout out

Neat! I need to try making some of those. 🙌🏼

You should. Fun way to test your skills and you can apply it to just about any size you want as long as you can find the tap. I just made this size so I can make thumbscrews. Cheers!

Did you make or purchase the cutter?

This little one is a cheap one I bought but I made another one after from a square file I had for a bigger screw box. The cheap ones are decent for smaller stuff as long as you get it super sharp and work slow because they can break.
