Every machinist knows the two worst kinds of headaches: when your threads don’t come out right, and when it’s time to clean the coolant tank. In this episode, the guys swap shop stories about snapped taps, thread engagement gone wrong, and the endless debate of form tapping vs. cut tapping. Then it’s on to the dirty side of the shop — coolant tanks, chip mess, and the cleanups nobody wants to deal with.
