    Thanks Shane,
    Just having a proper look now. Would have sorted Andre with his bolt holes, has gear cutting details, dovetail sizes over pins, thread wire measurements and decimal to DMS. And you can specify just about every detail imaginable. Now i really should put my old laptop back together and retire it to the shed.

    Well now thats pretty useful by the look of it.
    I'm pretty sure I have webs pages to do all that, but having it all in one place is good.
    One question. 180.5 degress = 180d 30m (ok thats easy)=1.002778 thread.......whats a thread?(well its half a circle..

    The fraction to mm is cool, shame it doesnt work the other way.


    Thank you

    Stuart

    I've been using it for about a year now and find it very handy. I have a old laptop set up in the shed and saves having to hunt down my black book for various info like tap drill sizes for example plus it shows which drill for what amount of thread engagement. Overall a good handy program
