Default Need advice on buying a good tap & die set for small machine work
On Sun, 7 Sep 2008 20:51:06 -0700, with neither quill nor qualm,
"Michael Koblic" quickly quoth:

I have given up using tap wrenches or handles.
Drill a hole, chuck the tap, tap...

I used Gunner's reversible VFD and big Gorton to tap a couple holes
the day I was up there. It's damned slick.
