Threadmilling on a manual lathe
I had work recently that required some ID threads with basicaly no leadout. I did them with a regular tap, followed by a bottoming tap that had all its lead ground away. As the material was 316 stainless, it was a rather painfull experience ;-) Threadmilling could be a very good solution, as it is almost completely independent from the rotational speed of the workpiece. Here is what I tried, with a heavy duty routermotor mounted to my lathe. Also: Shopground threadmills, deburring and coldblue-application.
