Home made threading tap

[PJs]

Most welcome! I too keep all the scrap bits and broken bits...even the sawed off jaws of the calipers for my DRO. You never know when you might be able to re-purpose them and don't take up a ton of room. The idea of end mills for special tool bits is great. I'll give it a try. I get it about carbide being a bit fragile but a must have for the tough stuff and the occasional "Bink"!

Thanks again for sharing! ~PJ
