Hey, Jon!
<snip>Was "minor" a typo and you meant to say that the min. major
diameter is .3055<snip>
Doh! Nice catch...yer absatively, pozzolootly keeerecked!
FWIW, I see Schrader Valve Threads listed as 5/16-32, but I can't seem to
locate any specs for the threads...I even went to the Federal Thread
Handbook H28 for info, but - alas - none to be found...
<snip>I haven't had much luck with .305-32, but it might
be worthwhile to grab a 5/16-32 along with some hex brass stock and
chuck it up in the lathe and see what happens. <snip>
I think that a drill press & vise set-up might be a better way to go, you'll
have a little more control over the infeed, unless you've got an NC control
on your lathe...
Either way, good luck with your project...
