Was looking for a set of decent brad point drill bits. I found this

Mutually exclusive terms.

When you going to get out of the cheap seats.

You want brad point drills, try McFeelys, WW Grainger (Same company
these days), McMaster-Carr, Rockler, Lee Valley, etc.

Notice Home Depot& Lowes didn't make the list.


I bought a set from Rockler several years ago with 1/4" hex shanks. Most
of them are fine, but I tied the 3/16" for the first time a few months
ago, and it has the shank on crooked. They no longer sell that set, so I
can't get a replacement. I used to think much better of Rockler. I am
not amused....

You are (at least) the 2nd person I've seen make that comment about the
Rockler bits. I don't want to be not amused either. Thanks.
