I might try something similar for my mini milling machine.  That way I could drill all of the holes in one step, and then change out for the tap holder design.  The machine would then line up the tap over each hole through the code, and I could pause it at each for tapping.  

I did manage an average of 84 tapped holes per broken tap, so it added about 6 cents per hole tapped for the costs of the taps that I broke, and about $20 to the project costs, so reducing that would make a difference.  Rich
