Just a practice piece, but nice to know that Bradford pear takes a decent thread. Cut about halfway, then waxed, then finished thread. This is 20 tpi.

The chasing bug began several years ago after my dad passed away. Just found time in the last week (while my hand is healing) to really study the info that I have.

Really fun and glad to add this to my repertoire.....

Richard, those look like nice threads. Sorby tools?

Josh,

Sold by Craft Supplies as Henry Taylor, but the etch is someone else......256609

I have some African blackwood and some boxwood on the way, I'll see how they do.
