Well I have a request for doing plates made out of AR500. They require cut to size, which I can have the supplier take care of that. But they require drilling and tapping; 3/4-10TPI. Range from 2 - 5 holes per plate and up to 10 plates at a time.
Any best methods for tapping AR500? Plate is 1 1/2" thick and overall size is not an issue, it will fit on a Bridgeport, not that I would use the Bridgeport.
Also, any good suppliers in the PA/OH/Upstate NY area?
I would rather spend the money upfront to get the correct tap vs trial and error resulting in more money and time.
Thanks,
