JackF: The Atlas without the QC box will turn 30tpi. Unfortunately I have not found a drawing of the screw you need that seems to be item 26 in the attached schematic. I'll keep looking, though.

It would be no problem to turn one of these for you for the price of shipping.
Have you tried Numerich Arms Corp? They have a surprising number of odd parts.

Thanks Earlgo, that would be great, That is the screw, however the screw I need is different. I have a good one I will take a pic of and send to you along with the dimensions. It will have to wait till tomorrow as I have a meeting with the tax lady, an auction preview and pick up some meat dropped off at the processor last week.

That's Numrich Corporation (a.k.a. Numrich Gun Parts).

Good Luck!

I stand, um, sit corrected. I couldn't find my catalog for the correct name and my memory is, wait, what was the question?

What is the air speed of an unladen swallow?

HI There,

Would that be a European or African swallow?

Good Luck!

Speed was pretty fast and I think the swallow was named Jack, or Jim, or Glen, or may be it was a Wild Turkey. My memory is, wait, what was the question?

JackF: I checked and I have the proper change gears for the 30 tpi screw. I still haven't found a drawing.
An alternative would be that I can cut a thread on a short length of 9/16" dia bar of 41L40, with centers, and send it off so you could finish it on your equipment. When you are ready PM me with the drawing and we'll get you going.

Jack let me know if you got my PM. I see that this one and the last one I tried to send to another poster is still in the 'OUTBOX' . However the software says it has been sent.

Thanks.
