Everything has been coming up roses all week. I decided to work on a personal project today finishing up some hand bait injectors. A couple brand new HSS dies had just arrived earlier this (last) week. I went to thread the ends of the piston rods, and for the life of me I couldn't get the stupid dies to start. I undersized the ends. Soaked everything in TapMagic. Everything I could think of. I using one of the brand new HSS dies, one of which was in one of the tail stock die holders. I put two tommy bars in it, and leaned into it, but it just wouldn't start. Thinking maybe they had sent me the wrong size I took a second look. CRUD! Left handed. A found an old Hansen die in my Harbor Freight kit box and finished the job.
Anybody NEED a couple left handed 3/8-16 HSS dies? LOL.
