Thats just a brilliant idea. Thanks so much. I was thinking about renting a large tap and die set with the big handle at a local parts store, but I like your innovative, free approach, and will do that.

Just another thought if you haven’t chased threads before. Use some tapping fluid. There are some alternatives to going and buying the fluid. Make sure you cut about a 1 turn worth of threads and back it off a bit to break the thread. Then repeat. Keeps the die from binding and will guarantee you a better thread. Back off the thread and clean off the cut chips after each turn.
