The only negative is the weak holder. The biggest parts are in the front, so most of the time I have to struggle to look in the middle or to the back. There is no pull handle so I made a hook out of a piece of stiff wire to grab the front row of bits. All 3 layers move in tandem; You can't move layers individually, making it difficult to pick out bits from the middle layer. I would have expected more from a 100โฌ drill set. On the other hand, the drills themselves smell of quality. They areโฆ
Love this bit set. They may not be of the highest quality, but I'm not going to drill holes for a shuttle or anything like that. The nice thing is that the side of the box that holds the bits allows for the bottom of the bits as you tilt each section. You can easily pick up and put back the bit without tying the holders together as the longer bits will glue the work together. I have another set of bits that I got from another site that are honest but it's so much a hassle to put everythingโฆ
Excellent bits. I bought a sears gold colored titanium bit set and thought the craftsman was good. Well, they break fairly easily and dull quickly, and are difficult to sharpen with a guide tip without special tools. I decided to try this set as it is not among the cheapest. I realized that with the competition it has to be better than the cheaper ones. My game was worth it! These bits are designed for everyday professional use. I used a lot in my metal workshop back then and I've never brokenโฆ
