Turner85 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 So I purchased my combi drill and impact a couple months back but still need to fill up the accessory compartments in the carry case, so far I've picked up a Weisser pivoting bit holder, a wera set of bits that contains all the normal bits, pozi philips, slot, hex etc. I've also got the trend flip and drill and hinge centering bits. So what does everyone else keep, I'm hoping to purchase a few more bit sets myself, hss bit, wood up to 10mm, a right angle Attachment etc. Any brands you's would recommend?

DR99 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 I like the Dewalt or Makita bits. I like a lot of things made by Milwaukee their bits are not one of them they are pretty bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turner85 Posted June 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Thanks lads, seems the Dewalt bits may be better than I imagined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 I haven't heard anything bad about the Milwaukee step bits. The other nice thing is they are made in the USA too!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylors Tools Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Man I must of gotten a bad Dewalt bit or something but I was using a #2 phillips bit to drive wood screws and within the first couple screws the bit broke off a tooth. It must of been a bad batch, sounds like I need to try them out again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Wera bits are right up there dude. Pretty much everything I have currently is Dewalt but I'm still in the market for other systems. I also have the Festool Centrotec installers kit for my Festool drills which includes the Zobo drill bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khariV Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 The usual assortment of screw bits (phillips, square, torx, posi), countersink bits, drill bit stops and a sharpee so I don't have to use the stops (mark the drill bit and drill slowly ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Rebel Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 I love the Ridgid cold forged bits, they go hard, I use the star bits a lot and they just keep going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hathatyl Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Heres a look into my impact case. The spot where the bit boxes are is normally reserved for the charger. I use dewalt screw bits and porter cable drill bits. I try and keep it in a "ready to go" state, so I don't have to hunt around for pieces.

ChrisK Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 Great article too @Hatter512 ! Worth reading. I wonder how if he did that again, the Makita Gold bits would score? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyJames Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I can't get these in Europe i don't think, like I lot of things you's guys recommend and I'd really like to have. These are the spade bits. They are a bit pricey from Amazon. I know I can get a 13 bit set from Home Depot for $16.00, the same set sells for around $40 from other sources. I am not sure if Home Depot will ship to international. http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss/276-4418354-7685326?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=daredevil+spade+bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
