      I have used "corian" for many things other than counter tops but not as a nut! Your texture should have told me what the material was. Is there a metal insert in the nut or are the threads to be cut into the "corian"? I need a small metal lathe to cut threads and turn some parts. Now to convince the wife...........

        The guy who designed and built this vise said he threaded the Corain. He also said it was "not an easy task, but time and patience win out." He made a tap out of a piece of the threaded rod. He tapered the end and cut groves down the length.

        A metal lathe would certainly be a nice addition to your shop.

          I think this is the final of my part in this latest Moxon vise deal.

                      Nope. It was done in a single image export, however.

                        Thought I'd share a detail view of the hand wheel. This is out of LayOut.
