A very little progress here. My 1st attempt at the valve rod resulted in messed up threads (3-48) because I did not thread it correctly. After the 1st attempt at the valve rod, I did some wood turning, and today, I am back at the valve rod. Properly threaded this time, and it is now ready for the square end and hole on the mill. PS: Clarity of photos is still not good. Might start taking the photos with my phone next time. Also, I don't have a die handle for this size die, so I just turned it very carefully by hand.
