I just scored a killer deal on a 12-13" Starrett digital micrometer with the case and the setting standard on ebay for 63% off list

That's badass

:D

Deal King Cha-Ching!

Coated should last longer. But they should be about same same at first - right kev?
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

Since we are on topic, which are better for drilling into metal, this
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ruko-214-214-Drill-Bit-Set-Steel-Case-Ground-HSS-19-Piece-1-10mm-/150963503457?pt=UK_Home_Garden_PowerTools_SM&hash=item2326204161

or this,

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ruko-250-214-T-Drill-Bit-Set-Steel-Case-Titanium-Nitride-TiN-HSS-19-Piece-1-10mm-/160938734992?pt=UK_Home_Garden_PowerTools_SM&hash=item2578b23590

thanks for advice

Either one will be fine for your needs. People buy TiN coated stuff because it's shiny not because they see a benefit from it.

At the shop we use mostly black oxide or bright finish twist drills without issue. If I want performance I'm using solid carbide or insert drills.

Just make sure they're not Chinese drills.

Interesting factoid-

My shop recycled 79,000 pounds of metal this year.

Kinda cool

Do it Shawshank style. Put a little in your pocket to dispense of when you're here

Well played!

When the blind man takes your hand
Says don't you see
Gotta' make it somehow
On the dreams you still believe
