I got some O1 tool steel in the mail the other day and really wanted to see how it turned on my old SB 9" lathe so I made this threading tool. I saw the design on a forum but can't remember which one or when I saw it. I still have to grind a slight helix angle but after that I think it should work well.
Getting it up to temp with a propane torch took a bit of time but it did work.
