Does anyone know what size the threads are that the cones screw onto are for the Trotec Rotary attachment?

I'm not 100% sure it will be the same, I only have a rotary for my Flexx400, not the speedy 300. I had a few parts custom made for me, and my machinist said the thread was M10 x 1.5 pitch, I didn't test myself, but I'll believe what he told me in this case.
Yep, they are M10 by 1.5 mm threads.
.
Can these be picked up at the local big box place?
Probably. That's a pretty standard metric thread. If they don't have them, try a NAPA auto parts.
I bought some at Lowes awhile back when i was working on an adapter for my rotary to turn pens.
Greg,
Depending on your interests, it might be worth picking up a thread gauge. They sort of look like a thickness feeler gauge and normally have metric and SAE on the same unit. Dirt cheap and really handy. Also a drill and tap guide. I use them all the time since I am not one of those disgusting people who can glance at a screw and casually say it is a such and such with so and so threads.
Hello Keith, do you have any pictures of your pen engraving jig?Quote:
