Or something else, probably under $50 including post? Or do your worst to try to talk me into buying something more expensive...

Bloody hell That is cheap.
If it is just for cleaning up theads I would get the $12 one. The only thing I found strange was the "alloy" does that mean that the taps are only good for tapping aluminium, I doubt it, but,
seems to have all the common bike sizes.
may even get one my self

That's what I was thinking, I always thought they were expensive pieces of precision kit, and I guess you can get ones that are, but for just cleaning stuff up and maybe occasionally making a thread, cheap is good yeah?
Might get the ultra cheap one and post a review
