Brad point drills I paid 12 bucks a piece for. 10 inches long 1/8 dia.Waste of money.Tried once and never used again. Have way better luck with regular drills. Fortunately I really didn't have to buy much. I got all the best heavy duty band saws, drill presses, Bridgeports, and everything else needed right at work. Only thing that sucks is I got to be at work to use them so I got to plan ahead. Paul

my vote is for a 14" bandsaw...you can tune it,,,,resaw with it...has good roller's..bed.....lot's of different blade's for it....and it'll last. no plastic on this one.....plus if you need to part with it...you have something nice to sell that will for the most part hold it's value.

BOAT fish do count.

Since your on the subject of bandsaws, and I'm thinking of buying one. Maybe someone can recommend the best type and or size. I want to start making darters and also cut better lip slots for my danny's. I've been using a hacksaw and or jigsaw and want something better (as in faster and neater).
