So im tapping some holes on a new forge i'm building with and 6-32 tap and wouldn't ya know it. TINK! the tap snapped off
pretty much flush with the hole. "no big deal" I thought to myself. I have another tap so I just moved the hole over a bit, and guess what?
TINk!! So I went out and bought another tap and proceeded to drill and tap 3 other holes with no trouble at all. So i go back to the first one and ... you guessed it! TINK! I had to laugh at this point. It's obvious that i'm having "one of those days" so i'm just gonna get back on it tomorrow. Anyone know how i could get all these out? Would it be possible to drill them out? Would one of those screw extractors work on something this small? Thanks... I just needed to vent. :sad:
