    I Thread Mill down to M3, some things I make require a full thread right down to a shoulder, this has internal and external full threads to shoulders.

    Internal and large external are both 1mm pitch and so were cut with one thread mill, if you are only tapping bolt holes milling may be overkill but it also allows you to produce any class of thread with one tool, unlike taps. ;-)
    You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D
