Thanks for your effort, but I was thinking of something simpler. That is way to complicated to make myself.
Are you planning to use a pillar drill or a mill and if the latter what kind?
I ask because in a mill with a quill which can be unlocked and used with a lever action like a pillar drill you can leave the quill unlocked and the quill will float as the tap pulls in, if you use a tap with a reduced shank long enough and leave clearance under the work there is no chance of breaking the tap or scrapping the job.
There are many ways to skin a cat but when asking for suggestions it helps to specify the type of cat and the tools available as otherwise everyone responding is just guessing and lots of frustration on all sides can ensue
