New Years Catch - Repaired !

[Dick Mahany]

On New Years Day I got a nasty catch with my trusty new scraper while taking that "last cut" in a threaded lidded box. Instantly ruined the thread.......

Well I sure looks great now! Is that what appears to be a homemade threading rig? Any chance for some more pictures of it?

[Roger Chandler]

Great Save! That is a great box, and now even more interesting with the contrasting wood. Thank you for sharing this.......it is helpful to see how others remedy mistakes and accidents.........I will have to file this one for future reference!

Best type of repair - one you would never know was there! I like your use of a contrasting color - had to have been planned that way from the start! Nice work!

[Nate Davey]

That is a beautiful box and the repair is masterfully done. Love the threading method you came up with too
