    Default thread boxes ?

    Hi everyone (who is reading this)

    I'm not sure if this is the right place...

    (sounds like a rugby player dazed, confused, pant less and lost in a hotel corridor but...)

    I am wanting to make some timber threads because they look like useful items and I can't seam to find a reference on the forum via the search.

    Probably me doing something wrong, but the word "thread" seems to bring up every thread posted.

    If someone, dare I say it, could tell me where to go it would be appreciated.

    (remember to play nice)

    Cheers,
    Rob.

    There are a few other threads that have popped up from time to time, but this might help you to kick off.

    Thanks Soth and Ian.

    The link Ian listed was a fantastic resource which linked to several other threads (posts).

    I think I found more info than my head can absorb.

    I have decided that my double garage workshop, which houses our cars will need to be revamped if it is to effectively serve as a furniture workshop.
    This will involve building an appropriate carpentry bench with all the vises as would be expected.
    I have a decent bench at the moment, but It is more a general type bench with only an engineers vise. It has served me well to date but is part of the "design" layout problem.

    I really like the idea of authentic timber threaded vises and I'm the type to make it if I can rather than buy it.

    In addition, you can never have enough clamps so I think a few timber threaded clamps will be a good place to start with for practice.

    It will be good practice on the cheap little lathe as well.

    Thanks guys for your help.
    I will workout the search feature eventually.
