This works because of the carbide tip. An old carbide endmill works good too.

Love the slow motion top snap

Good Job!.

Where is the Masonary bit sharpening video

I bet you would normally weld a nut to that tip that was left. If it's broken deep down with nothing sticking up. Yeah, your way worked. Never used a spade carbide to do this job. Left handed drill bits are my favorite but not for a broken tap!! Well done man. Yes I'm subscribed and liked

There are never perfect conditions like this where u can use drill press Most of the time its in awkward places where you can't get. Show me video like this and I'll be impressed.

But! How did you grind the masonry bit? John from Oz

what size is the tap?

I wish it was this simple to get them out a aluminum cyclinder head 🤦🏾♂️

Yikes. I actually cringed when you smacked that tap with the hammer.
-
you could burn it out on a EDM drill and send it!
-
Why did you go with 3100RPM at first then slow down? what was the second RPM? Good post, the second plate used as a Jig is tits!
