“What did you buy today”? Well, my first thought was, “Not much for $250”! lol
Nothing extravagant, just a few odds & ends that I either needed to replace or wanted to try.
Top row:
135* split point cobalt stub drills - 1/8”, 1/4”, 5/16”, 3/8”, 29/64”
120* HSS spotting drill (for all my other drills)
135* split point jobber drills - letter “I” & 29/64”
P1 “T”-shaped parting blade (5% cobalt)
Bottom row:
3/8” HSS 4-flute center cutting long length end mill
5/32” cobalt 4-flute center cutting double end end mill (usually prefer single end, but this was all they had)
5-40 adjustable split die
5-40 spiral flute tap
5-40 spiral point tap
10-32 spiral flute tap
10-32 spiral point tap
¼-28 spiral point tap
Micro100 solid carbide boring bar .180” min bore x 1.5” deep….can’t wait to try this puppy out!
EZE-Lap 400 grit “credit card” diamond stone
EZE-Lap 600 grit “credit card” diamond stone
Other than the 5-40 split die (TMX), boring bar (Micro100) & the EZE-Lap diamond stones, the rest of it is just KBC “house brand” (i.e- Chinesium), but even still, it looks to be waayyyy better quality than BusyBee’s “stuff” I’ve been buying.
Me thinks it’s going to be “Bye-bye BusyBee, hello KBC” from now on!
The little beeps you hear in the background is my son bringing up the feed speed. The second video is a run at full speed and 5000 RPM
