    The reasoning is I have 4 nuts to make. 75mm diameter thread, can you imagine the cost of a 75mm diameter tap!! I would use it twice and in fact need 2 (2 nuts LH thread, 2 RH).

    Single point threading seems a very sensible option as I'll be able to use it again for other large but different threads. I'd only need to buy a LH and a RH insert. That's assumes I can find one of course!
