Threading Dymalux

[Bryguy]

Does anyone know if Dymalux will take threads? I haven't tried threading stabilized wood.

Never tried Dymalux specifically, but I have successfully threaded stabilized sycamore using taps and dies.

If you have a metal lathe with a live cutter and the right tooling you can Live cut threads on pretty much any wood .

I have not been lucky enough to do that, it seems the speed is not high enough. Did you really thread wood (pen size) on a metal lathe?

Sorry not really a pen maker.
Normally I cut 3/8 x 10 tpi in my pool cues all inside threads .
