$20 Tool-Fest, Part 5 - You Know The Drill

 Yep, you know what's coming...

This post will be fairly brief, as it concerns the small amount of hole-making stuff in the tool collection.  

First is a small selection of various random drill bits and incomplete sets.


The coolest tool in the drilling category is this vintage ratcheting push drill.
It includes eight various-sized chisel tip drilling bits that store neatly in the handle.
This item is ideal for boring out small pilot holes in wood.

I thought I would include the following in this post because it is somewhat related to metal workpiece hole processing.

This is a nearly complete tap and die set.  All of the components were found loose in the bottom of the tote.  I plan on going down to the local 'Smoker's' store to pick up a wooden cigar box in which to store this set.

At the top of the picture is a small T-handle chuck tool. Not part of the tap & die set, but still handy for other small drilling and reaming tasks.

More posts to come.
