I was wondering what you ment by 'thread'. It would depend on what
size thread you want, and internal or external. There are hand thread
chasing, and there are machined ones, and Beall (the same ones who
make the buffing system) has some threading accessories.

If it is a standard size, use the appropriate metal tap. Maple, lignum vitae

Hi
Don't know if this is the right place to ask, but can anyone point me in
the right direction for ways to make a short thread in wood.
Its for my father to repair a hinged mirror, I've been on Google and can't
find anything really suitable.
TIA
Anthony
