How to make threads
#2
Yes, a tap and die are how one cuts female and male threads, respectively.

They can be purchased individually, or in sets, usually cheaper per piece compared to buying individually.

IMHO, very inexpensive taps are often so poorly ground and of inferior quality steel that they are a poor value. I avoid the cheapest tap & die sets like the plague.
