Totally off Healey content, but here is a stupid question Re. dies.  I have=
 a piece of 1/2" OD steel pipe I want to thread (the outside).  I don't kno=
w the die size to use.  A 1/2" die seems way too small.  Anyone know what s=
ize die to use?  the number of threads doesn't matter---just the size of th=
e die.ThanksTom
