It's definitely my "turn" to win.
This looks like a great book. Would love to learn how to turn threaded lids.

This has got to be better than gluing plumbing cut-offs into my turnings. I'd love to learn this skill.
Wow...only three other guys want this book? I figure a one in four chance is pretty good that I'll be threading lids by the end of the week!
Am new to woodturning. Would love to start out on making small things and progress to larger. Would love to win that book!!
My hat is in.
Turning looks fun ,im in.
As someone new to turning, I could use a book. Especially if it's free.
One can never have too much information...
you could really close the lid on this project
Just yesterday I ground a small thread chaser and tried to chase some threads with my new (circa 1933) Delta Double Duty lathe!
I would like one too....
Looks like a great book to have.
Sounds interesting. I haven't tried that yet.
I am a new member and I look forward to much valuable information.
I would really like to own that book
In to win
I'd like a copy
I was recently approached by a good friend that wants me to make a reproduction of an antique needlework frame but I do not know how to cut the threads on the parts that require them. I guess this book will help get me started in learning how cutting threads is done. Thank You for the opportunity to win the book.
