I have been following the Taps and Dies threads ( No pun intended ) like a hawk. I'm sure lots of people have. There have been some pretty good successes so far. But I have some questions.
1. Are you happy with the results?
2. How many failures have you had per success?
3. Would the pen survive a drop on the floor?
4. Was the investment worth it?
5. Do you wish you had chosen a different size T and D?
6. Would you have preferred a tapered tap instead of a plug tap?
When I get some time ( and money ) I'll also buy taps and dies. But to match the Jr series pens. I don't particularly want to thread the blank either, but will make the hardware.
