Subject: Re: wheres a good source for drill bits for PCB's??

Beside what others have stated, there are two more very important
reasons...

Short length of the fluted section of the drill. Longer carbide
drills are much easier to break.

Constant - standard, .125" dia shank on all the bits. THis is good for
use with small Dremel type tools as they can take 1/8" shank tools.
It is also good for use in many drill presses, not all 3 jaw chucks
can clamp down to 1/16" or smaller.
