I was looking for a tapping guide but couldn't find one at a reasonable price so decided to make one myself. This has eight holes covering M2 to M10 metric tapping hole sizes. A V-Shaped groove is also added which allows you to center the tap on curved surfaces.
The hole sizes used are the "close fit" clearance drill sizes taken from: https://littlemachineshop.com/images/gallery/PDF/tapdrillsizes.pdf
This is a first attempt so feel free to remix or modify this!
The design is inspired by this tapping guide by Big Gator Tools: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Big-Gator-Tools-MTG500NP-V-Tap/dp/B0076OAODG
