Thank you for making my point. When there is a will there is a way....
Besides, the reply was to "really odd ball thread sizes." I find it hard to believe a machinist would think this is a hard project.  ::)

I'll reply with an absolutely unequivocal, rock solid, NO COMMENT  ;D

Most standard oil filters fall into about the 3/4" to 13/16" diameter range......and have straight (bolt-type) threads in either standard or metric.
Making and adapter would not be too difficult with a little knowledge, skill, and a few of the right tools.

Remember those black rubber "corks" from science class ?
The ones for test tubes and beakers, with the hole in the middle for a glass tube ?
IIRC they came in various sizes.

And, they sell certain sizes at Lowes (in the blue drawers, in the hardware section) .... and at some farm supply stores.........
