I have an order for a turned screw on top box/tube to be made out of the same resin as two pens that will go into the box. I'll need to get a tap and die set for either 1 1/4 or 1 1/2. I'll have to make a casting at 2" or so diameter, and some matching castings at standard pen blank size.
What about turning these large threads in a resin turning, is there anything special I need to know? Any special tools or just the same threading tools I would use to cut wood? Should I get a metal cutting tap and die set?
