Drill Tap and screw wall chart

[Radio Ron w4ron]

I wonder if anyone could tell me where I could get one of the wall charts that shows drill tap and screw sizes. There were a couple of them in the machine shop section of the engineering dept where I used to work.
I'd love to have one for my workshop.
I've thought about using AutoCad to draw my own, but it seems like a lot of trouble if I can find one already done.

Thanks a bunch.

SnapOn?

Never see a Snap On tool truck, I'm retired and they don't make stops in my neighborhood.

Ron, Starrett puts out a pretty good one that is poster size. Found these on ebay for a reasonable price. http://www.ebay.com/sch/sis.html?_k...ew+Thread+and+Tap+Drill+Size+Conversion+Chart

I have one by Morse Cutting Tools and it's very nice. It measures 21'' X 25''. I got it at my local industrial supply store.

Just find one online that you like and save the file. Take it to a copy place and have them print it poster size.

Here's a sample link.

Here's the search.

This is what I have hanging in my shop, it cover a little bit of everything. It came from an AutoCAD DWG file, print it out 30"x42" sheet.

If you have a smart phone there are apps that work like a charm and always with you

I think I got mine at the local welding supply.

My local Fastenal had a poster sized chart for free.

I got one from Starrett, as well as some pocket charts, catalogs, etc and another from Applied Industrial Technologies through work. They always drop off calendars and stuff around December.

Go to BING, do a search for Drill and tap chart, under Images, pick the one you like, print it off, and put it in a clear plastic sleeve. I have charts everywhere in my garage and toolbox. Cost just a few pennies to make.

Oh yeah, I also have the drill & tap app on my iPhone

Thanks rharman. I just saved that on my garage lap top.

I printed a chart off the internet, if I'm using a tap I likely have cutting oil on my hands. I don't really want that on my smartphone, but one of those big starret charts would look nice on the wall.

I printed this one double-sided and have it in my shop. One side for fractional stuff, and the other side is metric.

Thanks for all the tips guys, I just got back from running my afternoon errands, while I was out I happened to remember that there was a Fastnale store in Indian Trail.
I stopped in there and asked if they had a wall drill chart I could buy,
the guy replied No I don't have one you can buy, but I have one you can have for free.
It's way too big for my shop, so I'm going to trim off all the advertising and unnecessary stuff.

Thanks again for all the tips.

I've got one from SPI that came free with something I ordered from MSC or Enco. Also another from an engineering house somewhere. They're easy to get if you know the right places to ask in the industry.

If you print some in your home computer on 8.5x11", take it to your local Office Depot and have them laminate it. Costs about a buck and it's a nice rigid lamination. Worth the time, better than plastic sleeves you can buy or cheap home laminators.

Thanks SlowPoke-Canada but I've been trying to get a lot of my garage and personal files, posters, etc. off of my shelves and walls and on to my computer. I need the space!

You don't happen to have one, or know where to find one that is more metal work oriented do you? This one is great, just would like to be able to add one that is more metal oriented.

I hear ya! Mine is going on the inside lid of my cart.

This is the one I have from MSC. Laminated and poster size. Metric, decimal, fraction, drill size, thread pitch, pipe thread, etc.
Worth looking at.
