Perfect Pilot Drills

exactly what I wanted/needed. It drills the required countersunk holes of different diameters and the center drill is held by a set screw so it can be adjusted for longer screws.

Cons
  • Expensive

Pros
  • Unreliable for size 5-14 screws

Pros
  • 1/4" shank
Cons
  • Disappear
