MinskMade Spindle Thread Protector

Minsk, we are progressing along similar paths. A few months ago I completed this thread protector. I did not really need it but decided to make it as a first step toward making an ER collet chuck. I'm now working on the collet chuck and have had a few setbacks, but getting there slowly. Your thread looks good. I had some trouble with chatter. I think my threading tool was not stiff enough.
