I highly recommend you discard that catalog immediately, delete any references to Lee Valley from your computer, and seek counselling immediately. Otherwise, none of us are responsible for your financial ruin! Seriously though, a class company with great products. I'm glad they're around! Cheers, cc |

Robin's ego will just get bigger!!! | | Just to keep things in balance: This morning I ordered some drill bushings from LV and - since I'm planning on installing them in a metal fixture - I asked how they were threaded. They promised (and did) send the info via e-mail... quote The measurements you requested for the Insert # 25K6220, the 5/16" Bushing #25K6205 and the 1/4" Bushing #25K6204 are all the same at ¼ x 20. Hope this information is helpful to you. /quote I'm still puzzling over how the factory drills a 5/16" hole thru a bushing with outside 1/4-20 threads... -- Morris Dovey DeSoto Solar DeSoto, Iowa USA http://www.iedu.com/DeSoto |

When you spin the drill really, really fast, it drills undersized. So a
5/16" drill bit will fit inside the root of a 1/4-20 thread. Right? grin! Sigh. Even the 1/4" bushing can't have a 1/4-20 outside thread. My guess is that you'll need a 3/8-16 tap sometime soon if not a 1/2-13 Bill |

If you use a long enough drill and spin it really, really fast, you can create a singularity for which the diameter is undefined. Any size bushing will work then. -- "Keep your ass behind you" wreck20051219 at spambob.net |

I bought a twin-screw vice from them (via a UK importer) back in 2000, fiddled a bit and stuck it on a shelf until the bench was built... Last summer, ahem, finally got round to test fitting it on the bench top, and woe of woes halfway in the threads seized in the nuts. All sorts of crude measuring and meddling later I couldn't work it out, but thought I'd try filing the sticking parts of the threads. Discussed my plan with Lee Valley/Veritas and they replaced it for me! Priceless service. I also really like the way they innovate with their tools. g. |

And, with equal probability, no size bushing will work. ;-)
That's the nice thing about shop-built singularities ... if they don't do what you want them to, you can always eBay 'em to some guy on the other side of the planet who needs the opposite probability from you. Kinda like digging through the earth to end up upside down in China. (Don't lose your grip .... the acceleration near the middle of the earth is NOT the be believed. You'll come to halt right at the lip of the hole back where you started ... in mist form.) Or maybe not. |

What I've seen of Mr. Python's moviesI really like. I really must make a point of digesting the entire body of work.
