I know awhile back guys were looking to re-tap threads inside the beds and die the threads on the nuts and would like the tap and die to do this.

Thanks Admiral. Great resources. Downloaded and saved.

Thank you Rich
So I got some of this info
"However, each plane also has two simple studs; one securing the front knob and the other fixing the handle. As parts go these studs have nil intellectual property value, are very simple to manufacture and feature wide tolerances."
On the first one it mentioned the studs are either 12-20 or 1/4/20 and wondering which is which for the years?
So which one is for the steel bodies?
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

Thanks for the links to those articles, Admiral. That was very interesting reading.
If you are going down a river at 2 mph and your canoe loses a wheel, how much pancake mix would you need to shingle your roof?

The 12-20 would be the OEM on the Stanley....1/4-20 usually means someone had to repair the parts....or, it may mean you have bolts from Millers Falls...
Show me a picture, I'll build a project from that
