Threads
I managed to do the threads on the pivot bolts. Single point thread cutting on a lathe is a somewhat meticulous job . If you lose concentration for half a second, the process usually ends in horrible mess.
Wrap the work piece in a piece of cut up Alu drink can and the chuck jaws will not mark the work piece !
