240260280z Posted September 1, 2015 Share #1 Posted September 1, 2015 Just got some hack saw blades made in USA. Now looking for quality drill bit set. Can anyone recommend one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanTechZ Posted September 1, 2015 Share #2 Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) At the machine shop I previously worked for, we used Precision Twist Drill (PTD) and Dormer among others. Try checking the sales flyer at KBC tools for deals. Be aware that we found the KBC house brand drills were quite low quality, you get what you pay for. http://www.kbctools.ca/products/CUTTING%20TOOLS/DRILLS/JOBBERS%20DRILLS/JOBBERS%20DRILL%20SETS.aspx HTH Mike Edited September 1, 2015 by CanTechZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siteunseen Posted September 1, 2015 Share #3 Posted September 1, 2015 My Dad said "Drill Hog" was a good set of bits for him, American made too. He has a sharpener but has never had to sharpen those. Couldn't remember where he bought them though. Here's some at amazon.com, http://www.amazon.com/Drill-Hog-Molybdenum-Lifetime-Warranty/dp/B00W303I1I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Coffey Posted September 4, 2015 Share #5 Posted September 4, 2015 My drill bit strategy is the opposite. I buy cheap jobber drill bits and throw them away when they get dull. I'm careful to always use cutting oil, make sure the bit is making chips, and not spin them too fast. I can get 30 to 40 holes in mild steel before they dull.
