whenever you cut a thread

it is good to have a nut already threaded on- so you can back it of to clean up the cut area (you have alredy dressed it, right?) makes starting the nut back on a lot easier
 
I appreciate everyone's input on this, sorry it took so long to acknowledge.
I think it is worth it to buy the recommended die and practice on some forks before the needed one.

Is the schwinn fork a standard size thread?

IN case I ever need to do one or make one!
 
Make sure to use plenty of cutting oil while you're doing it too.

I have had a local shop do a couple for me and it's pretty quick and cheap if they have done it before! And like everyone is saying... Make sure you thread a nut onto the fork before you cut it to your desired length! It will help "rethread" the cut area.

You might also double check ALL of your measurements BEFORE you cut!! Make sure you take into account ALL of the length you are going to NEED for upper truss rod brackets, light brackets, etc...
