While making a homemade bench vise out of steel I broke a tap in a blind hole. In this video I share my process of trying different methods of removing a broken tap. These methods were suggested on different YouTube videos and online forums. I hope this video is helpful to anyone who finds themselves in the same predicament.
I am currently in the process of finishing my bench vise - so stay tuned for the homemade bench vise video.
