<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">A tap is tool steel... very hard to drill its
center without slipping off into the surrounding metal (which would be the end
of the projexct...) Also the formation of the 3 grooves leaves you
essentially no diameter available to drill into.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Mybe if it was a 1/2 inch tap and you had a
diamond drill... mounted the part in a drill press and were REALLY good you
could use an EZ-out to pull a broken tap.</FONT></DIV>
