broken tap
Well, Google so far has NOT been my friend.
With a HSS 2-56 tap broken off in a lump of bronze I did my search - found reference to "jewellers' screw remover, a white paste". Looked all over the place in jewellers' webpages and couldn't find a thing. There was recent reference here to the use of alum (septic pencil), but I believe that was for use for a tap snapped off in aluminum. I could move the hole over and retap, but it would throw off the symmetry of the piece - however if the worst comes to the worst. Help! Mike in BC |
