Hi,

If your meaning the hole in the perch bracket, it has no thread the draw pin just uses gravity to stay in place..

Or are you meaning the tread on the smokebox dart? (the bit with the two handles on like a clock)

Hi

The problem is the tread is a litte stiff when i screw on the handle. Sad So the handle will only go down half way. So not locking the smoke box door shut.

So was thinking of running a tap and die down the treads to clean them up Very Happy Is this a good idea ? Neutral

Thanks for all the help Very Happy Very Happy
