Individual taps?

Anyone know where I could purchase an individual tap? I need an M4 tap to replace one that I snapped. Sure there are loads on ebay but I need it for tomorow but not sure where to try and find one!

Tracy Tools - a premium supplier to the model engineering trade.

If you only want something to use occasionally, get a carbon tap - otherwise pay the premium for high-speed steel (HSS). Even the HSS taps are cheap.
Probably the most straight-dealing company you'll ever deal with... if they supply something that's not up to standard they'll send a replacement straight after you contact them.

That could work.. although with my luck this weekend... I would snap the bugger... Why is it no matter how careful you are, you ALWAYS snap a drill/tap on the last opperation on a workpiece... GRRRR
