What if you ground a flat on the tap shank and drove it with an R8 end mill driver?

Nice 2J!

Get your red jacket and cap out. Deer season's coming, especially in Maine.

The pros use a device that puts a vacuum chamber over the chip area and it ***** the adhesive into the chip. I've seen places that will do it for free, and they collect from your insurance company.

Go to Boston Gear https://www.bostongear.com/ They have a catalog online.

I have the PBR. It works well, but the handle needs to be longer. I don't use the breaker function because on an o-ring chain, I just grind the ends of the pins off, and it comes apart fairly easily.

If you're looking for a disc drive, Amazon has them. Copy the floppy data to a thumb drive for later use. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RXEWOAA/?tag=atomicindus08-20

Blair/Rotabroach cutters. They'll pilot up on a center punch mark. Run them slow so you don't burn them up.

The second one looks like a gimlet point.

That kinda looks like a Jacobs Taper.

I have one in my Square D QO panel. It takes 2 spaces and has a wire to the ground bus.

I also have a hydraulic gun. It's made by Huck.

Those used a 1/8" Allen wrench. The older Delco distributors used a nut like that under the terminal nut. After the wire was disconnected, the nut was loosened to allow the breaker arm to be removed inside. SO had a tool that looked like a screwdriver handle with that type of tool on one end and...

Thru-panel toggle switches have one hex nut and one knurled nut. Other panel devices may use knurled nuts as well.

I still have some NOS Rajah terminals. They are for 7 mm cable. There's a later version that uses a screw-on plastic nut to secure the cable. They were popular in the 20s and 30s. I prefer Sparky plug caps, they're watertight and have no screws to loosen up and fail. They only take a few...

A bad connection usually creates heat. I'd be pulling the breaker panel front cover, and using an IR thermometer, checking every breaker and terminal in there for heat. If you have overhead service, you could also check the split bolts on the service drop.

They were scrapers mainly used for deburring. I have several.

I've had an SK3870 since 1965. Had it stolen in 1983 and replaced it with a new one. I also have an SO roto with a steel handle. I don't like plastic handles on ratchets, too clunky.

Just as an aside, that knife switch is wired upside down. It needs to be installed so gravity tends to open the switch, not close it. Double throw switches must be mounted horizontally. I served aboard a WWII-era Navy ship that ran 240 V DC, and we had a big live front switchboard that...

What really speeds things up is when there's an Amazon facility nearby and you don't have to go through USPS. I get 2 day or next day service because there are 3 of them nearby.
