Threaded inserts

[Webb Willmott]

Richard Raffan turned a fir box and used threaded insets in a new video. I’ve looked at the net for them and couldn’t find. Anyone know where they can be found?

 

[Phil Hamel]

I found a couple sellers on ETSY. Also on Ebay.
Check WWW.woodcraft.com.

You can get I believe Schedule 40 pieces and cut off the threaded parts to make them.

Those are 3D printed, though they are trying to avoid that by calling it "engineered polymer". I have released models for various sizes with double-start threads that you can print yourself: https://www.printables.com/model/587302-boxurn-threaded-lid-inserts

Even with 15-30% wood fibers? I thought they might be cast.

That is the typical amount in any of the wood-fill PLA filaments.

 

[John Torchick]

Woodcraft has them in their catalogue; probably online as well.

Thanks. I learn something that surprises me every day.

Before I switched to the 3D printed inserts from Etsy, I had a local machine shop make some from aluminum. They were about $55 Canadian for each set. This was $15 less than the brass inserts from the local woodturning supplier.
