Great repair David, well done !!

That looks like a pretty cool old school mill, be nice to see a tour of that machine, or your workshop if you've got any other nice gear.

I will do a bit of a workshop tour soon as I have the place more respectable which is getting there 👍👍

Well saved sir! Those bigger sized Helicoil kits are quite dear, but if you've got the work, they can save a tonne of time I'm sure.
BTW, something strange happens with the audio at about 4:30 where it seems to repeat with the mill running when you are tapping.

Yeah I couldn’t work out the audio issue :( I’m only an idiot in a shed editing and such isn’t my forte !
That kit is available between £65-£105 depending where you shop !
I have many of those ones now as they are cost effective.
My preference is for Würth Timeserts but they are limited in sizes for imperial and costly !
