Now that's the spirit!
I like to use threading dies whenever I can to cut threads on the lathe. I have a little jig that goes into the tailstock to get the die lined up parallel with the work piece. Or you can rough out the threads on the lathe and then finish them off by hand with the die. Good luck with it!
