Thread size on Live Center

RPE

>I am thinking of making a larger support that I want to screw on to the threads on my PM 3520 live center. I need to buy a nut that will fit on it that I can get somebody to weld a plate to.

I think is the same size as the Oneway live center. Does anyone know what size those threads are or have a way of measruing them? These are the threads on the very end of the live center where you screw on the large "cone" center.

Thanks

>Take your live center to the hardware store and find a nut to fit your thread, that will confirm what you have. Your live center thread maybe a clone and different. GT
