Review on πŸ”© Drill America DMS73 0011 Carbon Polished: A High-Performance Drill for Precision Drilling by Jeremy Rodriguez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great for occasional use

Bit (DMS73-1060) 18 Ship Auger is good for the price you pay for it but not very high quality. There were chips in the coil from the packaging, nothing that would affect the functionality of the chip ejector, but that doesn't bode well for the quality of the steel, or the manufacturing process, or both. The cutting edge was a bit sharp when given a rough cut (I have high standards here) and will obviously dull with use. But since I didn't want to pay $80-$200 for a good one, this is a good alternative to what it would be used for. Invest in a quality nozzle for everyday use if it should be sufficient for occasional use. I will say it looked better than many others I've seen in this price range.

Pros
  • Power & Hand Tools
Cons
  • High Price
