Got a call from the machine shop. They matched the thread for the sample nut and also the clay impression I made of the spindal.

They say it is a UNF 3/4 16 60 degree.

That matches also what Lynn said.
They are cutting a chunk of steel for me to test fit and then machining the nut and the flange for me.

No idea of cost yet. I need it and they can do it, and I have been happy with the work they did drilling all the holes in the Humber Gun mantle.

SO, I am getting three made up. 1 for my Mk1, another for Lance's Mk2 that I somehow lost, and one spare.

If anyone is interested in the spare, let me know.

You seldom see the original take-off nut(s) without an apprentice hammer blow depression on the thin dome section.
