    Hi guys,
    Had another play with the thread chasers today !
    Turned out not too bad i think, just a practice piece
    and a bit of fun too!
    I gave it to the grandson to play with and he took it home
    Oh,,,, well back to the threads next weekend.

    Excellent job, now you have at least one known timber species that will take a good thread...

    O.K. Smiifi, you have risen to the challenge and done very well. Now for the second challenge, try for a left hand thread.
