Traverse Tool, Queens, NY 1800 221 0270. travers.com
Used to give'em away at their counter, in cardboard mailing tubes. We had
dozens, at one point. Not bad. Drill/tapping as well, incl. npt. Very
good marketing/repeat sales tool.
Their catalog has an 8.5x11 version, in color, which might enlarge well.
Not a bad catalog, very user friendly. Not as voluminous as MSC/McM, but
much better laid out, full color.
They even brag about the paper they use, a special "brite white" that reads
better under dim lighting.... Nuthin like bein proud, eh??
Oh, and their 2006 catalog has an *extensive* conversion chart for every
goddamm quantity you can possibly think of, mebbe even incl light-years to
miles...
AND a glossary!!
They ****ed me off, tho, when, in their already ostentatious building (off
the Whitestone Expressway), they put up a 1.25" plexiglass divider on the
counter, like a goddamm bank.
But, they kept the counter gerlz wearing halter tops.

om...
When ever I'm hanging out in my Ole Machinist friends shop, I always
notice several of these very large charts hanging on the walls. Large
enough you could read them from 10 ft away.
In fact over the years (pre-Machinist Wanna-be day) I think I have had
such charts and just moved on without saving them.
I have small 8.5X11 versions of these charts that I have downloaded or
found in the trade books, but they don't enlarge very well and should be
on heavy stock poster material.
When I ask my Ole Machinist friend about them (hoping he will pull one out
and offer it as a gift), he recalls getting them from vendors at the Trade
Shows, year ago.
Where can I get a good, comprehensive, chart on heavy stock (without going
to a trade shows, sorry)??
Does anyone remember seeing them on eBay??
Thanks,
Steve
