And more labelmaker tape, of course.
Drills seem good, wasn't sure how they'd be, chink HSS stuff is really hit-or-miss. Haven't used them yet though.
Ive heard thier carbide is good for smaller stuff
Yeah
If it's sold as electronics stuff, it's all made there anyways
And carbide is less of an involved process. Make a mold and heat it up. HSS has some processes involved. So the gap between good and bad is a lot smaller for carbide than HSS.
I'm almost questioning if my drill press has little enough run-out to even use these tiny ones. It's good, but it's also good for being a 5/8 chuck, so that might still be too much for these.
I'll try the 2mm in a hand drill and report back.
Order a chinkshit dial indicator, friend

Have one, can't remember what it got.
Fuck it, I'll check.
HSS needs heat treatment. Carbide is a less involving process for sure
Ha, nevermind, should be fine, 4 thou at around 3.5"
Yeah, drills work well. Good buy, 10/10
Now much did they cost compared to resharpened bits?
For those sizes, you don't sharpen, you replace.
But $3.88 I think.
That labelmaker tape was $3.75, solder kit was $2.14.
I think there are companies that buy used drill bits from CNC companies and sharpen them.
Eh, maybe in bulk, but I don't think those are the ones getting sold to consumers. People don't want used drills, even though they're fine, but you can make that pitch to customers who know what's what.
But even then, I can't see anything that small being worth it. Past 1/4" maybe.
Not china and kinda shady but google gave me https://drillcity.stores.yahoo.net/restool.html
I don't know enough about drill bits to know how large those are.

Holy
That site is pure comfy
How can you call it shady?
its like 2004 web desgin dude
Well shit, I hadn't expected that small to be viable. They are carbide ones, not steel, but still.
What's your point, ben? <:thvnk:332928260004642827>
idk
So I bought a cheap knife from ebay
and it has this tracking i've never heard of before
Does anyone know how long Winit takes
who knows
i'd just forget about it
it'll prob turn up one day
