Threaded Rod & Shaft
Here is what the rods look like before threading -
Tonight (Sept. 18, 2013), I will be making 2 tools for the other parts of this process. One tool will be for cutting the separation pieces between the threaded sections and the other tool will be used for the threading process itself. Once I am done with those, I will take the rod on the right and turn the other end and get it ready for threading. I will post photos below of the new tools as well as the threading process as I get them done.
Update: Sept 25 finished turning both rod pieces shown in diagram. Worked on thread-release tool bit.
To do Sept 30: After class, finish grinding on thread release tool to get clearance for cutting.
To do Oct 1: turn thread release notches onto longer rod. Then thread both rods.
Sept. 31: turned thread releases onto one piece:
