Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The one downside i have found is the guide is tapered. It keeps the tap perpendicular to the surface being tapped, even on round stock. Great for hand tapping.

Great tool for drilling straight holes. Eliminates the need for using center drills. I typically use more sophisticated methods (mill, drill press with a centering device), but this works great.



Cons

Tap just flops around in the hole and begs to be broken. This is one of those cases where patents are bad. The patent needs to be dissolved.

    Metric taps require a different product

    Personally i have a lot of difficulty drilling straight holes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The guide is much thinner on the small hole end than it is on the large hole end


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This means if you line up the top edge of the guide the top edge of every hole with be exactly the same distance from the edge of the guide


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For me it would be much more helpful if the center of the holes were the exact same distance from the edge of the guide


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I would love this guide if i could clamp it down and know my hole would always for examples sake 18 of in from the top of the guide


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The design of this guide would not bother me so much it is was not an otherwise perfect tool
