Great video. You need a bigger tap wrench for threads like that 1/2” though!

[@craigsmachineshop2040]

Thanks, yeah I just ordered a real tap wrench. LOL I think I will start learning to thread mill also.

That's gonna work great once it's done :)

[@craigsmachineshop2040]

Just finished it up. It's really speeding things up. Thanks!

Hey Craig. Where did you get those clamps you're using? They look handy.

[@craigsmachineshop2040]

@@ecdezz I don't remember the place but i think they sell them at MSC Direct. Search for Mitte Bite modular pit bull clamps.

[@ecdezz]

Found them, thanks!

Howdy Craig, How do you disengage and reengage your press so quickly, have you modified it in some way? thx

[@craigsmachineshop2040]

I use the Air hydraulic Jack from Harbor Freight with a foot pedal.

Hey Craig, what is the cost on the basic UniPunch you got? I can see how that could be handy in the shop.

[@craigsmachineshop2040]

With the 20% off sale going on through the end of the year, it was $308 plus shipping. I think shipping and handling were $30. I got the 4A 1 1/4. Yeah, with different punch/Die sets you can punch all kinds of stuff up to 1/4" I think.
