thanks bob for the link that should get me started in the right direction
Bob,
another question in reference to the Mill formula on there. they refer to a "TPI screw" what does that stand for ? I was thinking turns per inch maybe is that correct?
Robert
Robert,
You are correct, TPI stands for Threads per Inch.

Thanks
