He's posting videos right now of a small sterrett type tap wrench.
I don't have a very good tap wrench. Mostly just use a drill, which for many reasons is undesirable. So this was s good project to do.

In this image I see what is similar to a B&S tap follower or equal. I was considering buying a Brown & Sharpe 599-792-30 Adjustable Spring Tensioned Tap Guide and I am unable to find specifications for this tool and I am also unable to find instructions for how it works. I am a very intuitive person when it comes to figureing out almost any tool once it is in my hand(s). But this concerns me that I do not know how to find stuff on the internet like owners manuals and product specifications. Any help will be appreciated.If the tap wrench is thin enough top to bottom, the tap follower can bear directly in the tap center drill hole or the ground male shank point of the tap itself. That is inherently the most accurate setup, needs the least headroom, and has fewer places to loosen up.
