Bob Spidell reminded me that British Tools and Fasteners in New York has =
both Whitworth and BA thread gauges...

A bit more expensive, but very good quality

Gentlemen,
=20
Here's what I consider the minimum for fasteners if you have =
British/European cars, and work on them. See attached photo...=20
=20
I also have a very limited but nice set of BSF, BSW and BA taps and dies =
made in Germany of very high quality HSS. Also a set of BSF Helicoils =
in 1/4", 5/16" and 3/8".
