Impressive.   Lots of questions.

Why did you make two passes?  Just because?  Seems like the spirals could get 
caught and muck up the threads on the second pass.

Was this steel or aluminium?  

What type of coolant are you using?  

Do you have an oil separator disk or belt and aeration to keep it from getting 
smelly?

I did my 10-32 tapping at 150 RPM.  Still scary how fast it moves up and down.
