    Thanks for the fusion file! I'm not talented enough to do this yet, but someday I'll want a half dozen more TC heads.

    You guys got me going on the form taps and thread milling on my 770. It's fun to watch. Used a YG-1 10-32 form tap last week to do almost 50 holes in some 1018 steel. Added a touch of moly-dee and no problem it whipped them right out without any strain at all.
