Looking for a left hand thread bolt...
« on: December 24, 2014, 05:15:07 AM »
Hope someone can help me out, i am looking for an M10 x 1 left hand thread bolt (any length), i only need one and after searching the internet cannot find them available in the UK. Anyone have one spare? or know of where i could buy one?

Thanks
Darren

Personally, I cant think of a better reason to learn to cut threads on the lathe.....  :beer:

I'd love to but unfortunately I only have a milling machine (SX3) I do not own a lathe yet.
