I recently bought myself a metal lathe, the Clarke CL300M I needed to take the first 2 rows of threads out of a brass bolt but didn’t have the cutting tools yet, however I did have a really sharp chisel and a bright idea
Although this idea worked it could have gone so wrong, I hope nobody tries this themselves
