| Don't Know How I Got By Without 'em |
| I know what you're thinking, "THAT'S $6.00 A BIT!" Well yes it is, and it's worth every penny. I thought the same thing, but after a very frustrating experience trying to drill cast iron with lesser bits, I decided it was time to try something better. My wife bought me this set as a gift about 2 years ago and I love them. I abuse these bits and they take it with a smile. I'm one of those guys that's too lazy to get the out the cutting fliud when a I only have a couple holes to drill. I regularly drill steel angle without lubricant and my bits are none the worse for wear. I did manage to dull one drilling too fast in a stone tile. Thinking, "maybe all cobalt bits are this good," I bought a Steel-X cobalt replacement. I ended up throwing the brand new Steel-X in the trash - the dull Milwaukee was still better. If I ever manage to wear these things out, I fully intend to replace them with the same set. If you're suspicious or don't need the larger bits, then try the 13 peice set. You won't regret it. |
| Worth the money |
| These are what drill bits should be, they are straight and sharp. I was using my drill press when tired them. First on wood, they started where I wanted, no skipping, cut clean, both entry and exit, true, with out deflection, and with such ease from the smallest to the largest in softwood or hardwood. This wasn't love but it was a thrill I was totally satisfied right then but I had to try metal. The same results I don't work with Stainless or Titanium. These bits are a real pleasure. These are the most expensive set of Drill Bits that I have ever purchased I'm sorry I spent so much money on cheaper bits. |
