First: Yes, I could just make one.
But that's not how my company works. If it's going to be used in production, it's got to be traceable to a manufacturer, and have a part number so it can be reordered as necessary. So no, I'm not just going to work a Saturday and build a fancy one like some of you have.
Second: It won't actually be used for a tap, it'll be used for a reamer, so something with a chuck for round tools would be useful, but I can make an adapter if need be (And then give the adapter a drawing and a part number and have it made by an outside shop, to follow rule number one).
This is what I found on MSC: https://www.mscdirect.com/product/details/09491002
Appears to be OK, the 7.5" throat depth is the minimum I can use.
Any input on this one, or other models?
Thanks for any help.
