Why single point threading?You can't get a tap big enough to make an accessory to fit on your lathe spindle. Even if you could, you're not strong enough to turn it.The nose on your Dremel has an oddball, proprietary thread. You want to make an accessory. Similar situation with lots of tools.You're making a measuring instrument and the drunken thread resulting from a tap/die just isn't going to cut it.You want to make a camera filter accessory for your camera and you can't find a die to cut a 1 mm pitch thread on something two inches in diameter.You want to make a draw-in nut for your 5C collet and the tap costs $400. (The tap wrench is another $100)And, finally, you don't want to risk having smart asses like me in the future tell you, "I told you that you needed single point threading capability."
I'm just glad you took our advise and decided to install a sink!
I think we need a cooking thread! I made bitterballen the other day, lovely snacks and better homemade than store bought.
I think that the PM25 price includes shipping. If you are going to pick up in Pittsburg Matt will deduct the shipping charge. Also, I believe he will take off about 3% for cash/check.
Spindle Bore on both is 1"Spindle Taper on both is MT#4Direct mount for PM. For Grizzly 1-3/4, 8TPIIs that what you mean by 'spindle nose'? (I don't see such reference in the specs.)As to the question, you're asking if I could make a thread for the spindle? I'm assuming so but and now for something completely different...Anyone know/use Insteon?Anyone gone solar? We're in PA and considering it. Wouldn't lease. Seems to make more sense to purchase particularly, as I understand it, a decent federal tax rebate is available.I saw the post about kids wanting purchase tools but never making anything.I hope I'm not one of them. Nah. I've got projects lined up.
