Those really large (King/concave) buttons are probably SAE 8-32, but - if Jinbao are M4x.7 - those King buttons are so large than a small die would probably (??) fit up within the underside and (once you got it started) you could flip the die upside-down and feed it the wrong way (changing the threads) and (again back-feeding) you could re-thread almost all the way to the ends of the threads.MN_TimTuba wrote: ↑Mon Dec 16, 2024 11:50 am Give @Lee Stofer a call, he's probably got the buttons he took off my King.
Good luck!
