This is something that I have wanted to do since I started Wood Turning and watching Sam Angelo all those years ago. With being restricted to a minimum of 500 rpm on my old lathe it was never going to happen. With the new lathe I can turn the speed down a lot further and finally I've been able to do some thread chasing.

There are several options for Thread Chasing tools, however I found this one from Ashley Iles that is a very cheap option and the tool is universal in that it will cut internal and external threads. This means that you do not need to buy two chasing tools to cut a thread.

I would recommend that you also buy the arm rest tool if nothing else.
