Of the remaining two, does anyone have pros/cons to report?
I'm leaning toward the "ER-20 Tension/Compression Tapping Head" as it is an inch shorter and I'm already invested in ER-20 collets. I'll be tapping holes in stainless, cast iron and aluminum, relatively small (under 1/4", but probably no smaller than 1/16") and I'll need blind-tapping support, but I can get away with not tapping all the way to the bottom.
Spinnetti - Which one is the "cheapie" that you purchased? And I'm curious to hear how it works out for you.
Thanks!
