Gene, Maybe try eBay. Item 180765422137 is one example from a seller who has several sizes. On the other hand, $45 for an easy to break carbide cutter is a bit of a thrill that I can live without. Single tooth thread mills like item 190567056928 are also available and offer the ability to cut a reasonable range of pitches with one tool. Again, somewhat pricy and fragile.
