Cleared up now. Thanks for the offer of assistance but for now I am gona pass on the Lefthand die as Adh2000 had kindly helped me with his equipment.


A huge thanks to Alan / Adh2000 . He spent a lot of time helping me . I couldn't find a way to grip the threaded rod so Alan used a collet on his HlVH to grip and turn it. Going back tomorrow after I get that pesky setscrew off.

Half the time I was there I was drooling over adh2000's shop ; he has the most attractive (floors, ceiling , general ambience) shop I've seen. If I had a place like that I would just live there.

I'm a big fan of those thread repair files. I picked up a set after using them at work and they're spectacular for un-buggering slightly damaged threads. They also work well on things you don't happen to have the appropriate die for.
