Small turning job

Is there anybody here (or that you know of) can turn up an adapter for me. Wish I still had access to Myford ML7



Scenario is I have a male threaded boss .... that is M16 X 1 (Metric FINE) ... only a few threads long.



That I want to connect to a female 3/8" BSP


I can't find male M16X1 to BSP but not female.



Never had to make anything with Metric Fine before.

or some similar hybrid ...

No, but I know where there is a Myford going begging, in Hertfordshire.

Wrong thread needs to be M16X1 on female end

Had found that on eBay - unfortunatly wrong gender I need female end to be M16 x 1

a nice ML Super 7 would be good Xmas gift

The Faucet Adapter M22x1.0 Male Thread to M16x1.0 might prove a way foward ... it does not though fit the other adapter with if for 22mm pipe not 22mm x 1 thread

Thanks though its teh only M16 X 1 fitting so far, I may be able to modify to fit a BSP apater

Didn't reply before because I thought you were sorted. There is a chap called flh801978 in Sheffield who often turns adaptors for people on the UK Workshop forum. I have his email if you want to contact him -
