I'm honestly baffled that there are so many woodworkers who are unaware of the incredibly cool things you can do with a 3D printer. This is one of them! Congrats on your very clever design!
Thanks. I guess there are a lot of traditional woodworkers who have not been exposed to 3d printing technology. Also, the required CAD skills do have a learning curve. I have made all kinds of jigs/parts with my 3d printer. Just recently bought a Bosch orbital sander which needed an adaptor to connect to my vacuum system. Here are a few of my 3d-printed parts that may be of interest: www.instructables.com/3D-Printed-Gadgets-for-Woodworking/ www.instructables.com/More-3D-Printed-Gadgets-for-Woodworking/
@@macplethora Same for me, I have a Bosch GEX 125 and also had to figure out a way to connect it to my shop vac, as the original dust collector clogs up rather quickly and is a pain to open for cleaning. 3D printing an adapter was a quick and easy solution to my issue. Little did I know that a 3D printer can do so much more than just dust ports!
Sir, that was brilliant! I have seen countless amount of videos about how to make a wooden nut and bolt and this is the best by far! Have a good day and thanks a lot from Russia! Looking forward to see more of your projects
Sir, this is waaaay cooool. Larger 3 inch wide screw for a bench vise is my goal. Using the other hand tool method, with a manual cutting wedge bit on a cylinder is way too time consuming.
Thanks! You should be able to make a 3 inch diameter bolt easily. Making a 3 inch nut (i.e. cutting an inside thread) might be more challenging. Let me know if you accomplish that.

Hello Sir, I’ve been searching on how to make a Thread Box when I stumbled on your video. This is a brilliant idea combining 3D printing and wood working, your idea will for sure help me to create some threaded spindles for some very, very old Power Pole Glass Insulators. Please tell me the name of what the 2 router bits you used are? Thank you for sharing your video, take care Wayne from Alberta Canada
Thanks! The bits are called: Double-angle cutter bit (60 degrees) for the interior threads, and V-groove bit (60 degrees) for the exterior threads: www.amazon.com/dp/B0067BVMVC www.amazon.com/dp/B00004T7E8 More detail in my Instructable: www.instructables.com/Large-Wooden-Nuts-and-Bolts/
I am seriously impressed. Thanks for posting this. Can you tell me what that router bit is called? The one for the internal threads. I've not seen it before.

Thanks for your interest. I would make longer threaded rods like this: First, cut a 1 to 2 inch length of thread on the front of your long dowel. Then 3d print a dowel guide that has the same (interior) thread on the left side - past the v-groove bit. Mount this dowel guide and thread in the tip of your long dowel. Finally, use the new dowel guide to pull/turn your long dowel across the v-groove bit. You will have to cut the total depth of the thread in one pass for this to work. Good luck, let us know if you do this.
Thanks for your effort. İt is a good work. I print your 3d parts but "thread box int.stl" and "hex-nut holder.stl" is not working effectively. while hex-nut holder was entering in thread box, they were stucked. is there any solution about this problem.
Thanks. The files worked for my 3d printer. You may have to tweak the dimensions (or scale one of the parts) to make the pieces fit. Also, a little sanding and clean-up of the parts to remove any roughness will help with the fit. Hope it works out for you.
Thanks. I 3d printed all the plastic parts used in this project. The files are available at www.instructables.com/Large-Wooden-Nuts-and-Bolts/ if you want to print them yourself. If you don't have a 3d printer you can send the files to an online 3d printing service like : xometry.com or shapeways.com

Thread chasing using a threadmill in a router- pretty ingenious
Thanks! I like to build various jigs for my wood working shop! My 3d-printer has been very useful for that.
Thanks for showing the safety glasses before turning on the router, too many people make videos showing unsafe habits for my taste.
I agree! Thanks for pointing that out!
Really nice Rudi! Thanks for sharing these ideas!
Thanks!
Im watching it and I'm thinking how do people come up with this stuff.
Pretty ingenious, amazing job.
Thanks!
Such a clever combination with 3D printing, great idea!
Thank you very much!
