Mini Bookbinding or Etching Press
Make a tabletop press using two plates and four vertical posts. Thread the ends of 3/16 in rod to 10-24 so you can tighten with wing nuts or knurled nuts, providing even clamping pressure for small books, prints, or leatherwork.
Kinetic Balance Sculpture
Create a mobile with counterweights that slide on short sections of 10-24 threaded rod. Use the die to cut clean threads so weights lock in place with nuts, letting you precisely balance and reconfigure the sculpture.
