Once again, excellent job Stefan. I don't have any more words to praise your work

About the threading apparatus for how small tap can adjust it ?

And once again thanks, Hemi. This morning I didn´t have the appropriate words for your X-frame , that´s why no comment

As to your question: My device from Vertex (VTA12-JT6) officially takes M3 to M12, but I just test inserted an M2 (shaft dia. 2.9 mm) and an M2.5 (shaft dia. 2.7 mm [sic]) and that seems to work too (for the M2 only the threaded portion was visible). For the smaller taps the lower limit of the adjustable torque might be too high, but I still think it would work for M2 in aluminum. According to the user instruction there´s a smaller model (VTA7-JT6) for M2 to M8.

Thanks for the information, I always thought that those tapping devices don't work with so small taps, but apparently I was wrong.
May I ask where did you by yours ?
