Im looking to buy a 10 x 0.75 tap and die set of decent quality but which doesn't break the bank for section to barrel threading - any suggestions where to buy online?

For 'standardish' size taps/dies I'd usually check Tracy Tools first.

10 X .75 METRIC

Having said that I'm always interested in knowing of more vendor options to.

What Greg said, Ian. Tracy tools are a good, reputable, mainstream supplier.

Thanks Guys, I'll try Tracey tools then.

Also- any thought on where to pick up a 1mt Die holder?
[MENTION=1110]Phil[/MENTION]- will you have Bock #6 intermediate taos back in stock soon?

Thanks

RDG sells them Model Engineering and engineering tools online from RDG Tools Ltd Home Page (Engineering Tools) Tel 01422 885069 /884605

So does Axminster, but their webpage doesn't seem to be working properly this morning, so I won't put the link here.

The #6 intermediate taps are on order, but I'm afraid they are still about 3 or 4 weeks away Ian - sorry.
