The tap was great but I would think it's not too difficult to make an actual die to cut the threads on the dowel. The Woodwright's Shop had an episode where the construction of the die from an old file (for the cutter) and wood was shown. The cut bolt thing is brilliant for the tap.
All the wood cutting is done with the first 4mm of the bolt.
You can cut the wood more gradually if you straight-taper the end of the bolt starting from about 10 threads back and grind the threads down to nothing at the end of the bolt.
A man in command of an element ,in this case wood. If you move your mind to other places, you will move other places with your mind. I really have enjoyed your perspective on woodworking. I wish I had your ingenuity, enthusiasm and ability. Please keep on doing what you do, you are inspirational and there's too few people like that.

Noho,
Would it be stronger to make the nut from 2 or more layers of wood glued together at 90 degrees to each other?
Also, couldn't you use the bolt as a lead screw for cutting the threads on the dowel?

Wow, a bolt that size must be insanely expensive!

@Mueiwark Prob cheaper than the purpose made taps sold by the expensive woodworking stores though. Nice idea.
