Are you talking about an ACME thread; where the profile of the thread is square? A lot of standard threads are cut in wood. Sixty degrees, isn't it? To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you. . -Original Message- From: M.W.Foscue Sent: Friday, April

The nut actually only has 3 ¼ inches of thread the absolute limit of thread it will cut, adding a ¼ chamfer each end gave me an extra ½ inch longer nut length. if I needed longer I would make several 3 inch threaded sleeves and glue them in the inside to make a longer threaded bore. Bill

Ok - I got it.So - how did you get a nut ~6" deep threaded?   Go 3" in  - then turn the nut around and cut threads from the inside to the outside?Mac-Original Message- From: bulke...@mmnet.com.au Sent: Apr 9, 2021 10:10 PM To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Cutting

No because the bolt is longer than the router bit, the internal threading bit can only do about 3 inches of thread where the bolt is like 16 inches long Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of M.W.Foscue Sent: Saturday, 10 April 2021 11:23 AM To:
