Tool Mini Tap Handle

[Dusty]

Quickie project if your up for it, watch Joe Pie's video for instructions along with my drawing refer to the upper image. Yes I even made a set of soft jaws as viewed in the video. They are handy and fun projects.

I used a 10-24NC x 1" (threaded length) cap screw using 5/32" hex key. Taps shown are 6NC32 and 4NC40. Note how my micro tap follower fits the taps, very steady and accurate set up.

Nice job Dusty. That looks like a nice little quick and easy project that will pay dividends over the years for small tap control.

Excellent use of time and materials. I'd be proud to have those in my tool kit, might have to look into making at least the tap handle myself.
