Before detaching your thread, store your main thread's current run loop in an instance variable. Then you can just create your timer with the +timerWith... methods instead of the +scheduledTimer... methods, and add it to that runloop yourself from your second thread.

Since NSRunLoops are not thread-safe, it is not a good idea to play with one from another thread.
