I am looking for 3/8-10 and 5/16-14 threads. I can find the taps, but I cannot find a die for these threads. Does anyone know where I can order these?
Thanks,

Try cuefits if the regular places (Atlas, etc) don't carry it.
chris hightower has them on his cuesmith deluxe lathe site along with many other things you need

Thanks, Cuefits has them.
Amazing I can get a 5/16-18 all over for $10 and the 5/16-14 is $40 + shipping
Just curious what are you trying to external thread with 5/16-14 and 3/8-10?
Supply and demand. At least you aren't paying for a radial tap.

Going to try my hand at making joint protectors and had a crazy idea to make the pins myself by threading Delrin rods.
joint protector pins are cheap ,probably have some laying around . Forgot where l had bought them . Got rid of my lathes when l moved and retired
I used to get stuff from https://www.travers.com/
Harbor Freight if you not going to beat to death, as their stuff is cheap but work. Not for full time craftsmen.
Really Bruce ???? HB sells 3/8 10 and 5/16 14 taps and dies ? When did you see cue making particular non-standard threads taps and dies sold at HB ?
That's because 5/16 18 UNC threads . They are standard . 5/16 14 and 3/8 10 are bastard screws ( for all intents and purposes ).
You can buy Delrin j/p's at Ebay all day for the threads you mentioned . Not worth the time to make .
I order 3/8 11 by the dozens when I get mine made .
You realize they do offer stuff other in store.
Special order out of their warehouse.
Think you need GOYA and work on all those Cue orders, customer want their Cues, and quit being asshat.
Btw Lows, and Home Depot also sell tapes & dies.
Quit being a clueless.clown .
Plenty of places sell taps and dies.
HB, HD and Lowe's will not special order.you 3/8 10 or 5/16 14 taps or dies.
Stick to bingo.

Don’t ever give up unless your a quitter.
If you looking for a special tap & die, there has to be place that cater to machine shops.
Robles is people are too
Lazy to get off their asses, and put effort into finding hard to find items.
The word work come to mind, yes I know that is dirty word.
And he has no clue what you are alluding to.Give up
Really ?Joey go build your Merry Widows, BTW Google is friend finding.
Take your own advice . Google 3/8 10 tap and die .
See if it takes you to Horrible Freight .
