Metric Tap Guide

Metric Tap Guide

thingiverse

Inspired by a video by clough42, I created a metric tap guide for M3.5-M12 taps. Each tap hole was carefully sized using Little Machine Shop's clearance data, plus a 0.2mm adjustment, and accounting for my printer's tolerances in millimeters. The smaller holes required more adjustments since they were originally too small, but from M8 upwards, the holes seemed slightly oversized! I've only tested printing with PLA, so with ABS shrinkage, you may need to make further modifications. A Fusion 360 file is included for remixing and customization.
