[QUOTE="tejcurrent, post: 6682605, member: 585610"] Threading things- long story short I had the first tap break off in the copper 1/2 way through the first hole! Shit would not come out- I used every tool available to me (drill bits, easy outs, screw removers, torch) and ended up having to get a machine shop to remove the broken off tip. Once out I bought a new bit that worked well. Work at night in the living room lol [IMG]http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/alpinemayn/2010%20Electrical/Copper_15.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/alpinemayn/2010%20Electrical/Copper_16.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/alpinemayn/2010%20Electrical/Copper_17.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/alpinemayn/2010%20Electrical/Copper_18.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/alpinemayn/2010%20Electrical/Copper_19.jpg[/IMG] Old vs the new, like 1/8 vs almost 1/2". And 4 places to attach wire vs 12 per side.

This will make a HUGE difference in how clean I can make things.
