I can tell already this is going to be one of those obvious newbie questions, but here goes.
I need to make a very short piece (under an inch) of 360 brass with #8-48 threads.
How am I supposed to know what diameter brass rod to start with? Is there a chart I could refer to?
I have four 8-48 dies already, in "very used" condition. I want to make threads with each one of them, to see which one is in the best shape. All four of them are "adjustable".
Thanks in advance.
