Are you sure it isn't just a female to male converter? A head with a
male thread would be kinda odd...

Thanks Ecke,

I just had another look.... it appears that in order to mount it on the lamp stand the PO had opened the head up and fitted a 3/8" whit bolt down through the mounting hole. I have removed it and now have the normal 3/8" female thread. I have ordered a 3/8 to 1/4 adaptor as Bruce suggested (thanks) so in few days I should be cooking with gas.

Just as an aside... I have just used the Whitworth thread gauge plate I made as an apprentice 20 years ago for the first time.

Cheers,
Drew.
