I just use the press to keep the tap perfectly plumb, and pull the pully belt off the top. Then I hand crank the tap either at the chuck or at the pully wheels on top. They also make some special tapping chucks that will reverse and aid tapping, but I don't have one and the one I tried only worked so so anyhow.
As far as mounting, I'll leave that to [edit] NaeKuh. He's still planning out the build design so who knows where they will go. Maybe mounted vertically behind the drive bays between the pump and CPU block or something similar.![]()
