    I used to tap threads with a lathe. pretty simple really.. just dont start threading right after an energy drink and youll be fine.

    I end up with those taps on vise grips, hand held socket screw drivers, cramming old sockets on the end to use a socket wrench...
    never used a handle.
    had a torque line of a diesel...because it was one.
