This video has brilliant images of thread chasing in action, created by using four camers positioned to allow close and continuous action in real time. Allan's exceptional teaching ability means that even the novice can follow the process with ease. For the more experienced turner, it is an opoprtunity to study the very best tecnhiques of an acknowledged expert. Having explained the process, Allan applies the lesson to a practical project, turning a threaded Acorn Box. He ends with a guide to sharpening the chasing tools, a summary of the main points of the lessons learned and finally, a series of diagrams which provide clear explanations of the techniques involved in hand thread chasing.

This video was terrific. I have been wanting to try thread chasing, but had no idea where to start. Alan gives a wonderful start to finish overview of the process. I actually understand how the tools work now! Video quality is very good, and the pace is just fast enough. In addition, a few really nice little boxes are made start to finish.
I thought it was a very straight forward and educational DVD. I have been wondering how to turn threads for some time. I guess I've got a good excuse to buy some tools now and try it.
This info was exactly what I was looking for. I found it informative but I would have liked it even more if the author showed how to make a thread chaser.
