How do you know what size hole to start with? I’m looking to make some holes threaded internally for 10-24unc. What size circles do I need to use? Is there a reference I’ve missed for this?

Hello, and thanks for the question. It does not matter, seeing as the tool will use the selected vectors' centers. This is from the documentation: "To use the toolpath, select the vectors you wish to create threaded parts for. The centers of these vectors will be used to define the center of the threaded part."

Thanks for another great tutorial. Can you point us in a good direction for finding these types of bits for hobbyists?

Hi there we suggest starting here for threadmilling bits: www.mscdirect.com/product/details/03196052 (for US) and www.mscdirect.co.uk/CCA-82010A/SEARCH:KEYWORD/product.html (for UK) hope this helps!
