I will need all the tips and wrinkles I can get, when my mini mill arrives!
Producing products on a machining centre as big as a garden workshop, is poor training for our machining world!

Back to the water Lister 6/1 coolant flanges tonight.

Some of you may remember that I was in need of a 1" BSP tap to clean the threads up. Well one came up on Ebay recently and I put a couple of quid on it and then forgot all about it. Well I "won" it. Strange term to describe these events as I hadn't won anything, I had to pay for it....

Anyways, I paid for it and it arrived this morning.

Nice clean and sharp, looks unused....this pic conveys the size of a 1" tap. As I said before, I wouldn't like to use it to make a new thread !!



Whipped it through with a large wrench



Really cleaned the thread up, look loads of muck off. It's not perfect, but it'll be fine

You need to work a little faster there. We are up to 5 pages already and you only have that darn thing apart.  :wack:

It should have been running by now.  :lol:
