How is a screw constructed?

When we make the male thread, generally we use a die tool. When we make the female thread, we use a tap tool. If we do not have the suitable tools, we can also make the thread using a lathe. When we make the threads using the tap or the die, care should be taken in respect for the following. (1) Start the thread with a perpendicular positioning of the tap or the die. (2) Turn the tap or die in quarter turns and "back off" quarter turns to remove metal chips so that they don't clog the tool. (3) Always use a cutting oil.
