[TheForge] bolt thread repair tool

[Bruce .]

I wonder whether a tubing cutter or pipe cutter would do the same.  Might
have to re-mount the cutting roller on a smaller pin so it can rotate
slightly off-axis.  I'll have to give it a try.

I don't have much use for it, but I did have to clean up the pivot bolt on
an old leg vise a few months ago and it might have come in handy for that.
I used a triangular file, which worked.
