We mostly use Whitworth to confuse the Americans... See how it worked with the 123 blocks? :thumbup: |

sonuk I learned a lot about British Culture when I was in Manchester , I learned Why English drink Warm beer, all Refrigerators are made by Lucas Prince of insufficient light, and why everything is brazed and nothing is welded, because of the high cheese content in British Steel :) :) I APOLOGIZE, but until you you have to make sockets with a Dremel to fix you 1964 BSA 441 Victor, you Just ain't lived !!!! |

OK I'm Convinced I'm HAVE To make some .500", 1",1.500" blocks can anyone look at there's and tell me which ones are drilled and which holes are taped ? + |
| AdeV:
On mine, there are 5 holes drilled on either of the large sides, in the pattern that you'd see on dice. However, rather than slavishly following that pattern, I'd consider - how would you anticipate using the threaded holes? And then drill/tap accordingly. There's no actual rule saying they have to be drilled at all.... they can be completely solid. |
