Fellow Makers, once again my sincere apology as I have once again broken the very same Morse tap (1/4-20) that I broke back in July. I broke it yesterday around 1:00 PM. I guess the silver lining is that I was able to instantly place a repeat order for the same bit from my Amazon history so it will be here Tuesday and I’ll have it back in the box by Tuesday evening as I’m coming for the welding class.
For those that recall the previous thread and all of the suggestions/recommendation… well I read through that thread just before attempting this one just to make sure I was using the correct drill bit before attempting the tap. Yada yada… Oops I did it again. So at this point I know that it comes down to the technique and how far each turn in should be before backing out and going a little further.
Anyway, sorry for the mishap and the replacement will be there Tue.
