Drill Bit Comparison Chart?

   / Drill Bit Comparison Chart? #12  
Ron:

I'd like to give up on shop work but I have way too much cash invested in machinery. Heck, I have 2 Gerstner boxes filled with LSS, B&S, Mitutoyo and Fred Fowler precision tools.

Besides, if I quit puttering around in the shop, I'd watch the Superbowl and harass my wife. Before dinner I ran a couple of prototype float bowl extension screws for racing bikes. Nice billet aluminum bodies with 18-8 stainless studs. Hopefully, I'll get the job. Actually, I probably will because items like these can't be affordably made anymore. Of course the carburettors will be extinct the end of 2006. All engines in '07 that are carburetted will have to be EFI. Come to think of it, I'm close to extinction too. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

My laptop is on a wireless router so I can sit out here amongst my stuff and correspond. I can even sit on my bike or in the sidecar and type away....the miracle of electronics. What a life. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Put a cheesecake calender next to the Starrett chart. It makes it much less boring. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Got no intention of giving up the shop anytime soon. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif Just know that it will happen someday. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
Machines in shop are 40's and 50's stuff. Work good, but still old.

Don't consider 40's and 50's stuff to be old. Thats when the Boomer's were born. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I will leave the Boomer comments to others imagination. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Almost forgot. I like your chart. Already made a copy for the shop and laminated it.
