I have a HF mini-mill with the usual 7/16 slots, and a matching
clamp kit. The studs that came with the kit are supposedly 3/8-16,
and they work with the supplied nuts. However, to mount my angle
plate on the table I need shorter bolts, with heads. When I try
standard 3/8 bolts from other sources, the threads don't match
exactly. A bolt gets stuck after going half way through a nut. Has
anyone else had this problem? Do I need to get bolts manufactured
to a special standard? Thanks in advance for any comments.
