I am sorry, i got stuck in some important meetings this afternoon, i did not get a chance to purchase the taps today. However, it seems that everyone has paid, so first thing in the morning they will get ordered. I would say you should have them by Thanksgiving.

Good news!

Ok, wanted to let you know an update. I put in an order today for the taps. The Tapco Representative has charged me for 1 tap, and is making me 1 tap on monday, to be mailed to me on tuesday, both she and i want to make sure that the tap is going to do what we want it to do, and if any adjustments are to be made, we can make one now, rather than being stuck with almost 40 taps that do nothing, and you guys looking for your money back. So hang tight, this may add about 4 days to the whole process, but it'll be worth it. SO, if anyone wants to be added to the list, we have a few more days that you can be added on.

I will keep you guys informed.

Order is in

OK. The sample she sent me is very good. It works great. I used it with a 7/16 bit. The fit is very tight, there is no slop for the refill to wobble. infact, she is supposed to be sending me a .441 bit that is a slight bit bigger than 7/16 and smaller than 29/64, which should give a bit more clearance for the refill. Either way, using a 7/16 is just fine. She will start making them on Monday, should get to me the first of the following week, and I'll turn them right around.

If you try the .441 drill bit and it works better than an off the shelf size, why not see if she will sell us a couple .441 drill bits to go with each tap. It would sure be better than hunting them down . . .
