peening to tighten thread
I am finishing up a bench for a Southbend 9B.
The top is strapped at the ends with bar stock and bolted through with 1/2" - 13 stock. The last 36" length of rod has a thread on which the nut runs "loose." There's too much play and I'm not in a position to take it back. Can I improve the grip of the nut by slightly peening the thread on the 12" - 13 stock - at select places gr? Comments? Suggestions? Thanks, - Carl H. |
