Thanks a lot for such good advice Dave.

A long time ago, I used a different kind of extractor that was like a drill bit with left-handed flutes. You put it in a tap handle. At first, the extractor just drills into the tap. Eventually, the flutes bite into the tap and the tap will start turning. I haven't had to use one of these in a while so I don't know where to find them.
