I needed to make a 3/4” thread for a nut cracker project, so I dug this machine out. It is a Beal wood threader. Uses a pointed router bit and a machined threaded bushing to thread dowels. I think I have the bushings to make 6 sizes.
I leave this setup as getting the bit depth just right is a pain, well, until I need a different size.

That's cool. I'm curious how this threader works as I have never seen one working.
