Yeah. My bad. I replied in that thread, too.
Is there a way to rectify the mistake and move it all over here?

Yeah. I think, we just pretend like it didn't happen and then move forward with our lives like it never happened

well. I dont actually see any threads. I'm guessing that is cutting fluid. Itll help the tap cut more efficiently and help remove chips so it doesnt break on the hole.

What do I win?

so.... cutting oil.

 

[Nathan the Machinist]

I only use it if I'm tapping a hole in a fixture that I can't bear the thought of having to make over from scratch.

I have actually tapped a blind hole with it in a part with a 2-56 thread forming tap where the hole was too shallow and instead of breaking, the tap just punched a hole out the back of the part.


It's magical

I don't use it often
