As many of you know I used to manufacture pneumatic tapping machines....always wanted an electric but could never find one light weight enough with enough torque....but now at last... Radial tap demo on Vimeo

You could have used any 1/2 USA made Skill drill from the sixties.If you remove the gearing and the chuck and regear it to around 200 rpm ,this thing will easily break a 1/2 inch tap.These drill had welded in copper wires attached to the commutator. I still have mine. In my younger and poorer days ,I had this thing so hot many times that I could not hold on.

Many years ago I owned a tapper made by Ettco. It resembled a corded 3/8" pistol grip electric drill. Ir ran forward when pushed and reverse when pulled.
The idea of an electric tapper is definitely not new.
I sold my building (flex spaces really) so the machinery had to go...had an auction and sold nearly everything.... But I ended up keeping one flex space (previously had 5 of them all connected) of 1,300 sq ft....just an empty space...no electricity, no office, no restroom.. nothing. A month later, wife decides she wants to quit her job...and she actually enjoys cleaning machinery (well ok, not the super grungy stuff)....so I pay $$ to "upfit" the empty space with office, restroom, power, etc and selling a few machines enough to pay what she would have earned. Can't do much in 1,300 sq ft...but working out ok so far.I liked the video, and I would assume that is your daughter...but I see the other videos and don't quite understand, as I though you liquidated all you machinery and basically retired. It looks like you're back in the game, or never totally left.
I guess I should have clarified I'm referring specifically to articulating arm tapping machines, which until recently have pneumatic or sometimes hydraulic in nature. The problem to solve with electric motors on that design of tapper is the physical size and weight. The Spanish company Roscamat was probably the first to introduce an electric articulating tapper a few years ago.The idea of an electric tapper is definitely not new.
