Yesterday my builder arrived with his chain saw he had stripped the thread for the blade retaining stud. So its given me something different to do for a change.
A quick lash up on the drill to make it secure, then open up the hole.
Tap a 10mm thread.
Take a length of 10mm studding, turn it down to 8mm and cut a thread on it.
Job done, possibly stronger than the original.
Now i wonder when the other one is going to go ?????
