ohutch207 Machined navy nuclear parts for quite some time. Damn straight I do
- ohutch207 @ohutch207 and that isn't a "real" higbee. But it serves the same purpose. Can do em with a Groove tool on a Cnc traditional lathe and rapids at max 😜
lashlaruesc Yeah, I believe it's a cut to line up threads. Fire hose uses them so we can line up and couple hose in low light and/ or with gloves. 2 likes

- laruetactical @edronq ... This week our LaRue Trigger shop sent 1,500 triggers over to our catalog store to ship out ... 'bout the same for the past few weeks ... this week's mix was 1,100 straight and 400 curved. Pretty sure the curved are not backordered. 3 likes

pewpewvette Had hoped to see a Siete Christmas dillo this year, no go?
nate050618 Higbee indicator - used on fire hose to align threads and prevent cross threading, and also be able to easily be able to couple fire hose together in no light like in a fire.
sumziandi Google is amazing...Removal of the first (i.e., outside) thread of a female or male coupling to prevent crossing or mutilation of threads. Dimpled rocker lug on female coupling indicates beginning of Higbee Cut. 1 like

wildbill_hancock Shit, at first I thought it said 'Rigby' and I was confused and yet excited and my pants got tight
zerorifleworx It's a flat on the beginning of thread pitch for easy engagement
stumpwso Higby was the department store in A Christmas Story
