Hey, does anyone have a copy of that little chart that comes with thread wire sets?

We lost ours, and it's my favorite reference chart for thread calc's, you know, not too much info, just the stuff you need to do things quickly...

It would be awsome if someone could post a copy!
Thanks!

Thanks man,

But this isn't the one I was looking for. This chart, while achieving the same result, has more info than I needed.

Cheers,
I bought myself a 0-1", and 1-2" thread micrometer from KBC tools, and ditched the wire chart.The micrometer are a breeze to use, and paid for themselves after just a couple of uses. No morer chip diving into the pan for a .005 dia wire........

PS:
Print the chart, cut&paste the info you want with scissors onto a clean sheet,photo copy 1000 copies for future generations.

lol,

Now that sounds like a good idea!

How much would a couple of mics like those run you?

I think I got the 0-1 for under 150 CDN. The 1-2 was around 200.I used mine again today, what a time saver.
