So - I decided sell all my woodturning gear and dedicate my time to engineering!
Good news is I've just bought a new Sieg SC4 lathe.
As my first mini activity on this lathe I decided to have a go at thread cutting.
I've never tried thread cutting before, but it worked out pretty well.
Many thanks to Bob Ackert for producing a really excellent Supplement to the Sieg SC4 Instruction Manual.
This document really helped me try out thread cutting for the very first time.
I am a novice when it comes to engineering, but I hope my videos will inspire others to give it a go.
I really like challenges and I think it is a great way to learn and keep the old brain active.
