[TowerTalk] PL-259 Threads

[Gerry Smith]

I use brass plumbing fixtures soldered to SO-239's or PL-259's for
hardline connectors. Easy and cheap.

I have some CATV hardline with an outer diameter of about .410 and seems

that if I could cut the proper threads I could screw a PL-259 right on
the 
cable.  Does anyone happen to have info on the inner threads used for 
PL-259's?  Are they arbitrary or can I buy a die to cut the matching
threads?
