    I'm looking for a metric left handed smoke bender, if anyone runs across one in their internet travels.

    Umm .. shouldn't those come in a kit of two? One for normal and the other for reverse-threaded applications? What were they thinking?

    I have no problems with the Metric sizes, except for the thread/ pitch on bolts. The course/ fine-NF/ extra fine-NXF was all good for me. Still wondering why, I mean WHY? 4-5 different pitches on a 3/4" bolt? I may be exaggerating a bit, but that's what it seems to me, concerning thread pitches.
