KR33 CNC Machine – 2nd version – Table Progress

Neo7CNC KR33 CNC Version 2 Table

The table has been machined and now I need to tap the 225 holes in it to 1/4 20.  They are blind holes which means they don’t go all the way through the material.  This will make it harder to tap but we’ll get there.  I did get around to counter sinking the holes at least 😐

I’ve tried out a few different taps so far to see what will work best.  The tap with the smaller neck seemed to work the best.  These are bottoming taps so I can get threads in very close to the bottom of the 0.4 inch hole.
