We switched to these 5/16 SS taps for this year. We got them from Andersons for $1.60 each.

I checked out Tractor Supply and they told me they don't have sugaring supplies, but all the other stores do. I like Essex County Co-op and get most of my chicken feed there, but, they have a few sugaring items which they appear to sell as novelties. The spouts I saw there last year were price from $5-8 each. Ain't nobody got $$$ for $8 spouts.
Mine should be here today or tomorrow. I'm waiting impatiently.
