I’ve taken a Beall wood threader and have adapted it to a CNC machine. The Beall is designed to work with a hand held router, which makes it challenging to adjust the thread depth. Combined with the CNC I can adjust to thousands of an inch. The best part, it’s programmable, repeatable, and easy to …

Very cool setup! I’m guessing you rotate the dowel by hand?

Fantastic idea, I have to remember this one.

What a unique, simple, yet perfectly logical method of threading! Never saw this before. :sunglasses: I’ve used a standard thread mill to cut an oddball thread in a mounting plate.

I have the CNC and I have the Thread cutting bit that is shown. I build wood urns for human and pet ashes and I make the threaded portion for the top and sometimes the bottom cap at a two inch diameter. I put off making my threaded units on the CNC for a year, then bit the bullet and the first one …
