This is great! I didn’t know about these gauges.
Needs more Thread Detective and Heli-Coil. Cowbell optional.
Amen. Steel threaded inserts and STI taps would make for a good part 2. Prewinding Heli-Coils and tap locking keenserts, etc. Thread Detective looks rad, I haven’t seen them before.
That file will save my life! Sean, the Old Tony that is on you is very usefull! 🙂
Great tips, Sean (& other Premium users)! Aptly timed for a project I’m dealing with now even! Hope you keep going with this series (Shop Tips) for well into the future.
I like these except I own a True Value and you guys keep name dropping Home Depot. 😛
Thank you! Previously I knew just enough about this to be dangerous. Now I might be able to be good at it!
