They would have done, had the previous occupiers of the holes not been force fitted and e-metaled in.HxPaul wrote:Dont the SIP long studs just screw in once the original studs have been removed ?Daggs wrote:I need to tap out four holes to fit SIP long studs.
I have sought out a tap now. As 'Knowledge' says 10mm x 1mm pitch. £20 freaking quid. ( i may consider renting it out)

If I can't find my tap, I might be taping you up (gettit?) to borrow it, as I will need to tap mine in a few days time.Daggs wrote:HxPaul wrote:10mm x 1mm pitch. £20 freaking quid. ( i may consider renting it out)
