I wish they did, Anthony, because there would be no need for a dedicated tapping stand - just use a drill press. The ideal would be flats at each end of the shank, so the tap could also be used freehand.

But it isn't going to happen... .

Nice job Stew.

I thought it wouldn't be long before you got around to sorting it, when you showed me the problem the other day.

Single point threading rules the day, yet again  :ddb: :ddb:
