Thread problem

Couple of weeks ago I bought a TSRCflat3 from TS Optical. I had two adapters made up by Precise Parts. One on the telescope side and one on the camera side. The one on the telescope side has a thread of 90 x 1. The one on the camera side is supposed to be 80 x 1. The adapter on the telescope side screws in perfectly. However, the one on the camera side starts to thread and then stops like it is an imperial thread rather than metric or vice versa.

Two questions.

1. Can I get the thread recut?

2. Does anyone have one of these and know what the actual thread size is? I need to make sure that the thread description is right so I can confirm to Ashley that there is a problem. I have already contacted him but imagine he will get back to me asking if the thread is correct.
