Hello,
Sorry about that last posting. My connection went out after I'd
gotten half way through.
I have disassembled the wheels on my Eldo, and several spokes were
really stuck in the hub. I got them out eventually, but damaged some of
the threads. I didn't think this was a problem, as I have a metric tap
and die set, and I thought I could clean up the threads with a metric
die. However, the thread did not match any thread on my metric guage. I
took out a reference and made some detailed measurements with a
micrometer, and as far as I can tell, I can't find a match to B.S.W,
B.S.F, B.A, B.S.C, N.F, or N.C. threads. I didn't know there were that
many standards until I started this exercise, but I thought it would
surely be one of these, but I don't think it is.
If anyone knows what thread this is, please let me know. If required,
I can list every dimension pertaining to this thread, but I'm hoping
that someone can fill me in without this.

Thanks,

Brian Murphy
