I ran radial arm drill presses as a kid before college. You would think I'd know drills.
(45 years later) Customer comes over from his machine shop employer across the street for some work on his old truck and we snap a bolt. He helps using my gold colored $13 drill set from Harbor Freight. He shakes his head and says I'll be back in the morning on my break.
Brings me a baggie full of goodness in the form of about ten quality sub-half inch drill bits. They are still my go to as I can grind them by hand. The steel makes all the difference.
