Camera adapter ring
 

How difficult do you think it would be to get an adapter ring 0.25" width,
with 25mm x32 internal thread and 28mm x32 external thread. Well it is
nigh on impossible, although the threads are standard in photographic
equipment. All other combinations of adapter rings with these external/
internal threads are readily available. I am not going to buy a lathe to
make my own, I only need one.

3D print?
Maybe somebody already designed on on thingiverse.com

Try these guys - SRB Griturn. They have almost every camera lens adapter
there is and will make you a custom one for a price. Assuming that what
you want is physically possible to machine from a metal rod.

Failing that try Telescope House who also do bespoke optics adapters or
Edmund scientific whose online catalogue is now so awful I try to avoid.

Another possibility is to coat both threads in ptfe tape, and then fill
the gap with car body filler.

Thanks...I have sent SRB an email.

Maybe buy a cheap 28mm filter and a cheap 25mm filter, throw away the
filter glass and glue the 25mm ring inside the 28mm ring. I believe
each filter can take another filter of the same size on the front screw
thread so you will end up with an internal 25mm and a external 28mm

Unless size is critical can you achieve this thread combination by using
2 or 3 available adaptor rings together

If that will do it SRB do every filter adapter size shift going.

No, because I need to be within 7mm for focus.
