RE: help with a thread
Hi guys
Again thanks for all your help
Is there a chart you use to look up thread dimensions, pitch, tpi , crest etc
I was trying a m22 x 2.5 and got a bit confused on the chart I was following, so I asked ChatGPT
After 4 hours of me telling it, it was wrong, it finally agreed
I was drawing it in SU then asking it questions on the iPad
When I get home I’ll upload my figures and see what you think, the thread looks good on the screen, but that doesn’t mean it will fit
Thanks Dean
