I thought I had my tool lust taken care of for a little while but I saw something demonstrated last night and I’ve got to figure out either how to make one or beg, borrow and steal the money to buy one. A fellow woodturner, Roland Hege, demonstrated a threading attachment at the Charlotte Woodturners meeting. It’s a very slick tool and allows you to make threads in wood for threaded boxes, wooden bolts and nut or whatever else you could think of.

Roland makes a lot of really cool tooling and is part of the brains behind the Rambling Rose Engine that I’ve talked about before.  Great job Roland!
