Grinding spiral flute taps - YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dK4ZlWRSr7M)
It took a while to get the setup thought out. The grinding is very simple to do. 1 real hurdle was the collet grip was dodgy and the tap was moving away from the wheel. If I get a qty to do I'll set up a stop inside the ER chuck shaft and set the tap flute height with a planer shaper gauge.
