A jig saw will work up to about 1/8" in copper with a good metal cutting blade. Anything over that something bigger would be needed. I use the water cooled band saw at work. If you use online metals they will actually cut the peice(s) close to size for you. But it does cost more.
I would just get the tap you intend to use and not a whole kit. You just need the tap and a tap wrench.
