So that could be the problem, we need a G3/8" nut, not a NPSF nut. Good catch!

Did you actually find a
NPSF nut? if so, that
would work as well. (As I said a the top, NPSF stands for "National Pipe
STRAIGHT etc..." )
We haven't been able to find a 3/8-18
NPSF nut anywhere locally. (You probably tried a 3/8-18
NPT [National Pipe Thread] connector. That is the TAPERED one - I mentioned above that we already know it won't work. )
But that still isn't my original question... What off-the-shelf solutions have YOU guys already
FOUND, to mount this puppy? (Part sources, please) We'd considering the link (mentioned above) for the T-nuts, but that just converts the problem into one requiring a T-Slot holder. And, giving us the specs for the thread doesn't help (we have that already), as we have no lathe here.
I guess I'd still like to hear other actual off-the-shelf solutions people have tried (which WORK, and hold it SECURELY), for those of us that do NOT have access to a lathe.
Thanks!
