In the workshop with Bobbin Boy! Threading metal rod

In the workshop with Bobbin Boy! Cutting a thread in metal for a flyer
Alan shows here how he once again uses the lathe for a job rather than trotting over to another "work station" or whatever. The lathe and the turner work best doing everything possible together!
Also, the topic of reverse threading arises. We get MANY email queries saying, "My whorl won't come off..." and it is because the old flyer assemblies normally had the whorl threads reversed: righty-loosey!
