Would anyone who owns that set and is satisfied, post the item number for it. Their online catalog is very hard to find stuff in.



thanks

Mike, just to be totally clear, these drill bits are better than TiN coated Harbor Freight ones, right? If you say so, I will buy these.

thanks

See the flyers from their main web page. For example page 4 on this one:

But who's the cutie in graduation photo #20? Do you have any further information on that one?

Is this the set you're interested in? DST-90123E

I've never used any of the HF drills but would be really surprised if the Hertel set isn't a lot better. I've been using the bright (polished?) sets and get nice symetric chips from them in aluminum and SS. The HF set might work just as well in balsa wood.

Every time I've checked J&L, their prices were significantly higher than MSC.

I have their basic 29 piece set. They work so-so in soft metals, horribly in balsa (wood's too soft) but OK in hardwoods (if you don't mind horrible tearout, front and rear, plus oval holes.) I haven't yet tried them on real metal. ;)
