Small Threads ... How?
GDay All,
I plan to do some model engine building in the near future and it crossed my mind that I dont really know how to cut internal threads at diameters smaller than 3mm (1/8"). I know I should be able to cut external threads without too much bother, but how does one tap a hole for such small threads?? Needless to say, I'm not a machinist, yet! But I am learning quickly! Any help you guys could give me, would be greatly appreciated. Also, to any aussies here, where's the best place to buy drill bits from # 80 - 1/8" ?, especially in Brisbane. TIA -- Regards trumpy81 *** Please remove the `_spam_' trap before replying to this message *** |
