KXPD1 screw

Jeremiah McCarthy
How many hams have a 6-32 die in their tool kit to use on the paddle screw?...And, if they did have one, it would not be necessary to thread it onto the screw beforehand...

I for one have dies and taps from 4-40 to at least 3/8-24 plus a few
metrics.  Given enough projects over enough years, a tool box will grow,
until it contains every tool, except the one you need for todays project.

The other side of my garage is just the same but with parts.

This repeats until we reach the status of SK.

73 and happy father's day, take the time to enjoy the best part of our
lives.

Me!

also 4-40 and 8-32

Thread-a-nut-before-you-cut works well, though.
