thanks for the advice. When you or DoN give advice, its best to listen.

I didn't mention I have a Monoset T&C grinder to correct the tool. adding the gun tap taper is a piece of cake. Also, the machine tap cycle can do peck tapping. I'll be sure and watch for chip buildup and alter the cycle accordingly.

Thanks, everybody for all the suggestions. i did just score an 8 TPI threadmill that's long enough. I could go twice around with this to ruff the thread. This machine is overdue for a table rebuild and I don't think it will threadmill in spec. to final size.

I have 40 lbs of like new, spiral, TIN coated NC taps, 1/2 all the way to 1 1/8" NC.

I'd be interested in a few each 7/8, 1, 1 1/8 for sure. email me: karltownsendembarqmail.com

Karl, let me pick a couple each size, nispect every tooth and then I will let you know.

Karl, this is a HUGE resolution picture.

Please expand the ipcture to fill size.

I inspected the taps very closely, taps 1/2 to 1 inch are in GREAT condition, 1 1/4" tap has some minor, but noticeable, dapage to the teeth. If you can regrind them, you will be golden, thuogh you will grind away the TIN layer.

I'm also interested. The email address is good.

I've found that if you click the picture that is blocked out when an auction ends, it is then displayed.
