a dry workshop

i think you will find you can

you ?

how about re maching the face the insert locates on looks like there is plenty of room to lower it 5 mm

google it you will be spoilt for chose

in my box of old screws/bolts is a few that have slightly triangulated threads they are tight in normal taped holes sadly i can only say i removed them from an oldish car and they are metric

came apart in layers when i tried to put a bend in it avoid it it now

according to the lecture of my recent speed awereness course what matters is what is written in the logbook. which was useful to know as both my pickups weigh over 2 tons loaded

why do we blame the road. its not the road its the fools using it

his chuck his choice

i did this then binned the light and housing replaced them with a bean can which holds a house hold LED 12V down lighter transformer is in the base of the machine

i like to attend car shows. far less traders at them, except those selling toy cars as models.

and most inportantly wait till SHMBO has gone out

i put a ceiling and insulation in my workshop/ garage mainly to keep it warmer in winter it also keeps it cooler in summer. also reduces condensation. well worth the time and expence of doing it.

i put an old Belfast sink under my outside tap useful for gardening as well

never built an engine so perhaps i should keep my gob shut but with any new to me job i do start with the easy bits and work towards the harder bits

i have one of these bought it with stand and some tooling about 2 years ago for around £800 its had very little use was still covered in the protective wax[and sawdust]. it has no name attached so can't tell if its the same size as yours

i have always ground a slight angle on the end

sorry i am confused if you got a tap why not drill it the correct size and tap the thread
