Where are threading taps and dies stored?

In case I need to use them, are they in the machine shop or mtpetal shop?

Machine Shop, last I saw in Grey Cabinets. Some taps are in plastic pouches as a set. A lot of taps and dies are in wooden cases, 3 IIRC. Very few, if any, non-moon walker (metric) ones. Also some odds and ends in plastic boxes.

@Team_Machine_Shop Where might I find reamers? I need a (preferably) fixed or adjustable to ream relatively soft material (stabilized wood) to 0.253-0.255. An ‘F’ drill is just a hair too big for what I’m doing.

In the Grey Cabinet. There are many different sizes.
