Hey everyone,
I am in need of a set of silver and demming/reduced shank drills. I spend quite a lot of time boring or using the boring head because I haven't acquired the vast collections of tooling that many machine shops accumulate over years and years. I was looking to purchase some larger drills, but unsurprisingly, they aren't cheap. Even the off brand ones are easily $50 plus for sizes larger than 15mm. Now I will be happy to pay for that one day (especially when I know what sizes I really need) but for now I decided to buy a set off ebay.
I knew that these drills would not be great. I couldn't find any videos on them, so I bought them to find out if they were a case of 'you get what you pay for' or a hidden gem. Turns out, they had a lot of issues, ranging from deep scratches, bad grinds and undersized.
Long story short, don't make my mistake.
