Thread forming tap..

The description of a thread forming tap indicates that it doesn't make any chips. This type of tap actually looks very similar to a thread chasing tap.

I think I like the idea of using a bolt and cutting a minor groove through the threads to serve as the cleaning action when chasing the hole.
