Back in the day we used forming taps in production work. 3000 piece runs were made short work of with a tapmatic and a perfectly sharpened bit. "Roll taps" as we called them, gave us threads that I woud say were better than 90% on a consistant basis. As far as easy outs are concerned, I never liked them. The best way to get a stud out, if its not broken off down in the hole, is to mig up a button on top and spin it out. Works great on steel in aluminum for obvious reasons and does very well for steel in steel. You need to get right on it while its still hot. Thats part of the trick.
