Recently I've been spiral drilling some holes for hand tapping later and others for bolt clearance holes, so I was inspired by the Shapes plugin to come up with a way of inserting these holes and centres into the drawing.
For anyone interested, I totally changed the xml code from the Shapes plugin.
Features.
1. Separate tab for each type of thread, I can add plenty more tabs
2. if your units are mm and you choose an inch bolt, the plugin will convert sizes automatically, and vice versa.
3. you can add or ammend the data
4. choose which holes to add to the drawing
5. It creates an xml file of the data in the CamBam system folder
6. added a pdf manual
Edit: I've just been playing with the Threading plugin;
http://www.cambam.info/ref/plugin.threadingmopand they work together well. This TappingData plugin puts the correct size circle in the drawing and gives it's diameter for entering into the Threading MOP, it also gives the thread pitch for entering into the Threading MOP.

Please advise if any problems or changes, additions required
Don't forget, I can't be held responsible for any errors in the data so please check the values before using.

Changes;
1. Removed Delete Row button (why would you want that anyway ?)
2. Improved data validation
3. Added a version number to the xml file.
If the file does not exists, a new file is created
If the file exists but is an older version, it will be overwritten with a new version
If the file exists and is the same version, good to go !
This was to allow extra tabs to be added without causing crashes due to the xml file not being in sync.
4. translation code added
Edit: 1 Jan 2017, Version1.3 attached
