    I was rebuilding a caliper cause the pistons were seized on one side, but then I accidentally broke the bleed valve off when I got it all back together.

    those with a keen eye might also notice that my tap isn't straight, and that would be because i drill my hole at an angle :/

    My first thought when I saw the picture was that you were going to say you broke the tap off.....

    And now you can justify buying a home drill press.

    a lotta silver lining here, Buddy! :)

    I had a tire chain break about a week after buying my tundra, which then wrapped around the axle, and tore the break line off with the fitting, and I ended up having to do this same repair to get that fitting out.

    that tap not braking is about the only thing that went right this weekend.

    I've actually been looking at those little work bench mountable units as I don't really have enough space to justify a full size one.
