Once again the Kludgemeister combines two subjects into one post!
Fisrt off, I have a bunch of drills that have 1/4" threaded ends on them obviously intended to screw into the electric/air/bench drill. (These came from a military base closing somewhere and are just a handful of what was actually available.) There are several number sizes plus several 1/4" and a 5/16" - all except the last in some small quantity. I have no clue what these are supposed to fit so any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Also, I measured the shaft below the flutes and found all to be undersized. (Across the flutes is pretty much right or a gnats eyelash small.) Is this normal or some sort of special case?
Second, I know I've seen a tap somewhere to allow threading Cox .049 cylinders into homemade crankcases (Questions related to 2-stroke engines made from these will appear later.) but I cannot remember where. If someone could point me to a vendor, I'd greatly appreciate it. (I guess finding vast quantities of .09 or larger pistons & cylinders and the taps to fit them is pretty much an ain't-gonna-happen thing.)
BEst regards,
Kludge
