Tom, after reading your comment, I had a thought: could sawing through one side of a nut, cleaning up the threads and squeezing the nut in a vise - by trial and error - make a poor man's "no-go" gauge ? (Similar to adjusting a split die to fine tune thread dimensions.)
Hmmmm, the problem would be calibrating that nut "gauge"
without a male standard. Oops.
