One down. Used an 1/8” end mill for a flat bottom and ground a 3 flute tap flat for the most threads. Didn’t countersink it any either cause it would take a thread or two with it.

Why not use a bottom tap? Why ruin a plug tap?

It looks like a good place for a not so OSHA approved air chuck with long extension pipe.

We NEVER did that at my old job .... (... here kid, put this air plug on this 6 foot piece of 1/4" pipe ...)

We never got much done on the days we knew they were coming either...

To tell the truth I didn't get much done save for coping with the emergency of the day --
-- generally brought on by the actions of others...

Ah. I'm so used to selling multiples of all 3 taps to customers, it surprises me when machine shops don't have every size in each chamfer type.
