I began fabbing my new plastic battery box support today. I cut all of the metal to size and laid it all out. I bent one drill bit and broke off another in the mild steel. Brand new Dewalt drill bits. Pathetic. Suitable only for sheetrock or wood. My plan was to bolt it together first and decide if I want to weld it later. It all went well except for the drill bits. Otherwise it would have been done. Oh well, I guess I'll get new bits tomorrow.
That's sad Owen...
At one point in time DeWalt bits were made out of good steel. That is pretty crummy.
Used to be that cheap bits were crummy and HF wasn't ever the place to go.
Seems like everybody is jumping on the cheap bandwagon - even American companies.
