This afternoon I looked in here and thought "I should really sort this shit out."
Instead, I closed the drawer slowly and walked away.

We'd been having pretty decent luck with Chinese made LH cobalt drills at work.
Figured I'd try a Chinese made Bosch RH set for myself.
Can you spot which one has been used once? Haha!

I'll spend the money and buy the Aussie made ones, they seem like better value now.

Are you trying to tell me the drill got pulled straight?
Yeah, it just, just grabbed in a piece of mild steel plate and that was the end of it.
It seems like the drill isn't far off mild steel, it's only a 5% cobalt drill but it has been baked because they are golden, so it should be sorta hard.
The last drill I had fail was my fault, was also the first use with a very aggressive Milwaukee 13mm drill, it snapped when it grabbed.
