Re: Looking for a source of those RINGs on PCB drills?

2006-07-25 by lcdpublishing

I have about 250 drills right now and about 80% of them have rings 
on them.  I used to throw away the rings when the drill would break 
but have been keeping them since realizing the difficulty in getting 
them :-)

The one supplier of drill bits I was using on Ebay has since gone - 
he had great sets with popular sizes.  But those grab bags are handy 
as hell too - especially as I get further and further with my 
machine.  Somehow I have it in my mind that this little machine is 
going to be able to do some pretty nifty things ;-)
