    Ok, so the back cap (velocity adjuster) threads... I measure .660" major x 24tpi which would be a custom turned thread spec. Can anyone confirm this for me?

    Axe and mini the same? I could pull this really easily from my mini.

    I don't think so. The threading may be the same, but the overall length of the axe piece is longer.

    Thanks. I am finally getting the hang of dealing with threads, but keep second guessing myself.

    Not sure if this could help, but I find this extremely useful:
    click me
    It's the most comprehensive thread/tap chart I've found yet.

    edit - I see that you knew it was custom turned, so you must have access to a tap chart.

    Ydna uploaded a chart/ spreadsheet in one of my other threads that I have been using. I also have a machinery's handbook. I just don't trust myself 100% yet.

    Looking at the 2 caps, it appears they're identical less the very back where the axe is longer. This works out well because I can easily make the part interchangeable.
