Since ATM I only need to pop in some 1/4 - 20s, buying an apparatus for each size is ok by me as long as it works well.

That pic was from online but was a good image of the set-up so I used it. I intended to go by there this weekend (Sat) but had a funeral service to attend & didn't have time.

Thanks SCOTI, wasn't getting impatient. Wanted to get this out of Ryan's thread and was mystified how you had a picture and not a name, haha. Figured I would ask around and hit you back up for the mfr.

I went by there last night but they close @ 7p & I just missed. I've been working on my TRE insert debacle since after work so I didn't even try today.

Thanks man! But no expectation whatsoever that you would head to the hardware store just to get information on this for me. I thought if you had it reasonably handy and it was stamped with a manufacturer, that then I could look into how to order one or buy one local. Please don't take any more trips just for this, but thanks so much.

Additional info on what I started using when building my dually. These work well & you can do them in cramped spaces much easier.

I also purchased a Grade-8 bolt for each size die (insert tool nut) which is where my $10 number originated (die + bolt) combo. These were available/on the shelf @ my local Elliots hardware in the DFW area.

Well, information doesn't get any more complete than that. Thank you SCOTI. I hope that wasn't the only reason you went there, but thanks again. It looks like a good solution for me. I have a similar type hardware store nearby but I don't know if they carry Midwest Fastener. Now I know what I'm looking for and can ask for if need be.
