Anyone know where I can find new sets of these relatively inexpensively?

http://tinyurl.com/toolsfortrip

I'm sending a team of folks overseas with www.adoptonevillage.org and they
have asked me to source them some tools for a hand brace drill.

No electricity where they are going so I suppose this is the best option for
now...

Irwin is still selling that set new for about 125 bucks in a plastic
pouch--item 43697. Check Amazon. They list it with the wooden case as
well but nobody seems to have stock. Note that they'll probably need to
be sharpened by somebody who knows what they're doing before they're
really usable.

Also consider the possibility of using a brace with a 3-jaw chuck that
handles hex-shank bits.

How fast do you have to have them and _must_ be new?

Auger bits are fairly common on eBay and other venues like estate sales,
auctions, etc., for nearly give-away prices if the team can spend a some
time looking instead of spending dollars.

I've got my eye on the Irwin set...

Already have a number of the hex taper shank braces donated so I need these
tools.

Contact Irwin, http://www.irwin.com/tools/browse/dr...its/auger-bits.

Explain what you're up to, bits/sets you need, see if you can get some
sort of direct factory discount. Maybe they might even donate to the
cause. Can't hurt to ask.

You can find bits for hand braces (two-jaw chuck) at most antique stores/flea mkts, for
very little $$. You may need to sharpen them (a bit of filing on the cutting
edge). Look for straight ones.

Consider a few auger bit files to resharpen the bits.

Highland carries these and auger bits too. Not cheap tho.

Depending on size of holes drilled and materials ever consider a bunch
of battery drills and solar PV panels to charge them? Now you have
power screw drivers and other power tool capabilities.

All in the works. However, seeing as we only have official representatives
on site for three weeks out of the year, there is the danger that things
will disappear while we are gone. Many times I can't chance sending over a
team of 10-25 people not knowing whether their tools will work.

In the plans for this upcoming July is a permanent storage faciltiy for our
items on site.
