Mike,
Tim (I think) & I are referring to if you use the "Thread-cutting" Magnate bit that's on eBay.  Not the bit Bill used in his video on the screw shank.  That bit was essentially a V-bit.  The eBay bit is side-cutting.

Attach the router to the carriage and it will be set on the gear pitch of your choice.

This bit is made to be used horizontally.  it can be used on the nut as well as the outer thread.  If you have a long bolt, you will need to cut it from the top using a regular V bit of the same pitch.

Hey Mac,

Would it be for the nut on the inside thread?
Kind Regards,

Saw this router bit on eBay - and can't wrap my mind around how you would use it to make threaded wood pieces - using the manual LOM like most of us have.  Seems like it's made to only use on a CNC Legacy. 
So, in case some of you have the CNC Legacy and are thinking of making threaded dowels/screws  - this might be what you are looking for.
