2" BSP die loan/use required
Hi,
Anyone up here able to cut a 2" BSP thread for me or lend the die?
I need to make up a dummy solid insert for the boat flexible coupling to line up the engine to the prop shaft so I can fit the engine mounts.
Have some 2" pipe and 2" threaded flanges but no way to thread them
Cheers!

I was in a similar situation a few years ago....I had a piece of steel pipe that needed 2inch bsp thread on the end but no one I knew had a die!
I ended up going to my local speedy hire and the chap behind the counter took my pipe and threaded the end for me with one of these....

Over the past few years I posted out quite a few taps, dies, and odd tools and stuff. Most of which never got posted back to me. For that reason, I
won't post my pipe dies out but if you tell me how long you want the pipe (in length, not timescale!) I'll thread you a lump of 2"
steam pipe and stick it in the post.
