The front threads are 3/4-12 on the MultiPro and 3/4-10 on the
really old ones from the 80s. The Tap made in the US went for over $30
and the China made one was about $26 when I bought my tap and drill
bit set. You can clamp the Dremel at two points (Threaded section and
Body) without using a tapped nut. This allows you to put the Dremel in
and out quicker than having threads.
