Working tip: The woods to be machined should be short-fibered and at least moistened for machining. It is better to soak them in oil, preferably for 12 hours. However, it is then no longer possible to continue working with a coating of varnish.

For the thread size 13 mm we offer below round bars made of yellow teak, a fine-pored hardwood. This wood can be worked excellently and can also be stained and polished well.

Special threads: During restorations, wood thread screws that have a different thread pitch appear again and again. We can also have taps made for these special threads according to a sample. You can then use this special tap to make your own suitable die stock with our "die stock blank" for occasional screw production.
