Real machinists can laugh now but I made a usable tool today. I have had an Atlas/Craftsman 6x18 for over 30 years. I made a couple punches and a bunch of delrin parts for the rollers in the dishwasher but never really made anything. A few weeks ago I ordered some 6061 off of ebay and decided to make a machinist jack as a first project. Finish isn't great and the knurling is ugly but it will work. I figured out that I need a ratcheting tap wrench or I need to make a tap follower.
