You don't need a lathe. 2 pieces of wood to make wise lips, grip the case in there. Get a drill, drill it out and then thread it (cheap set at Bunnings is around $50).
Well, $50 is a $50, so there's that.
Well my builders licence says i can i drill a hole, & im sure at least one of my 7 drills will do the job...& im not worried about $50...
& i have plenty of wood for "wise lips". ..
But i assumed (as everyone has told me) it needs to be done in a lathe...
I guess (now you get me thinking of it) its not a brake or barrel thread so absolute perfect concentricity may not be ness...
Im also uneducated on measuring threads etc...
I do vaguely recall seeing those details recently on here, but dont remember where...
The man who knows everything, doesnt really know everything...he's just stopped learning...
