another good one to look for a called The UNIBIT. i get them from the
Snap-On guy at work. it's a single drill bit that has gradual steps on it,
from 1/16th to 1/2 of an inch, mostly in 16th and 32nd of an inch steps.
there are, i believe, two other models, which go even larger (1 inch or
more). they are quite expensive ($30.00+), but invaluable, especially for
cutting through sheet metal, tr-606 cases for indy out mods, etc.

3) i'm not a washer and dryer repairman either
