and I believe it rolls the threads as stated above. you also IIRC simple tighten the nut on the outside to deepen the thread or adjust the guage of the spoke. http://biketoolsetc.com/index.cgi?id...tem_id=HZ-C700
This is my favorite spoke threading machine.

The 3 little rolling dies come in 2 forms. The cheaper set is for galvanized spokes and the more expensive set is for stainless. I always use Castrol 'Moly D' oil as my lube and have threaded at least 8 sets of spokes before the dies begin to dull.
