I had to tap a bunch of 3/8” deep 2-56 holes in aluminum today and was in a hurry. I was doing this by hand the normal way when I remembered I had bought a Festool CXS cordless drill because it was small and had a very good feel to the speed control. I thought I would give it a try, something I don’t think would go so well with a heavier DeWalt, remember this is a 2-56 tap going in a deep hole.
It worked fantastic! Very fast, no broken taps and I could really “feel” that small tap through the drill. Now I’m even happier I bought that drill.
Just thought I would mention a good tool that worked in an application I didn't expect.
