If you want the best, payseven times as much and purchase from a reputable American manufacturer. Some people give less than five star reviews for these bits complaining that they are cheap Chinese junk. I can't understand reviewers that buy a $10 tool, then complain because it is of lower quality than a $50 version."

"The pipe clamp has a little more play than I'd like, and the degree arc that's sort of attached/sort of not, is also is less than confidence inspiring."

Just pick a bit about the size or very slightly smaller than the drill section of this bit and pilot the hole with that. The good: 1/4 inch speed lock base, tap with your portable electric drill, threads fit well, great quality."

"I bought this set of bits for a few shelf projects I wanted to make with MDF."
"The box they come in is pretty cool but is cheap compressed wood and after a few uses the nails started coming out of it and After using these bits I would say the price is what got me to buy them for sure they are very cheaply made and the bits without bearings perform ok but the bearings are junk and fly apart way to easy but after replacing the bearings with ones I ordered from another supplier they are ok bits."
"Just got these today, routing super soft pine, two different bits edges shattered in under a foot of work."
"On top of that, it was rated pretty high by consumers so I thought this was exactly what I needed. As nice as it is to have all the different kinds of bits, I still recommend buying higher quality individual bits that you need."
"After less than 1 foot of total usage of the roman ogee bit, the bearing flew apart and ruined my wood."

"Changing out spark plugs on my 2001 Honda civic got to number 3 cylinder on it started to get super thight and you could feel the threads starting to strip I thightened it back in so I could still drive it until I had the money to fix ( time sert kits are expensive over $200 for the kit) then I found this kit ordered it and worked great only took about an hour with a few beers while doing the job."

"This product is amazing it literally took me 20 minutes to fix my F 150."
"Make sure you out a ton of grease on the tap to catch all the aluminum shavings, then I used a thin metal rod with q tips taped to it so I could reach down in the spark plug "valley" to pull up any loose shavings."
"I used it on my '84 toyota pickup (22r), and I really disliked cutting into that aluminum head but it seemed to go ok. I managed to hit the piston while I was threading (hand smacks forehead) so make sure you either don't get all cavalier with your wrenchin' or ensure your piston is out of the way."

However, it can work as a good cutting oil to do small metal cutting jobs in a DIY home operation. If you’re cutting a mild steel like 4140, (non-heat-treated state), you can quickly work-harden the surface of the material to a state beyond the ability to be cut drilled, or machine in any way by any tool steel cutters at all!"

The torch connector is the same as for the Eastwood and older AHP, so you can get an upgraded CK flex cable. The folks that sell HTP have a CK hose/torch combo you can upgrade with. I blew through the first set of consumables pretty quick, so you should buy extras if you plan to use this very much at all. Although this welder doesn't have all the features of the better tig machines, the arc seems stable and consistent. The quality of the additional stuff, like the argon regulator/flow meter, and compressor regulator (for plasma) seems cheap."
"I suspect most of the not working complaint from people could be avoided if these units were checked for proper operation before shipping to the final customer. I think that boat ride can place a lot of stress on vulnerable areas, Other than that, I did some other exploring when I had the cover off, This is constructed out of quality name brand components, I saw Toshiba, TI, Sanyo just to name a few."
"Good home welder wouldn't recommend for anything other than projects around the house."
"Plasma torch works awesome!"
"Primarily bought this machine for cutting holes in Stainless Steel."
"I'm used to the tech school's plasma cutter, high end, I hope with more practice the machine and I will get through the thicker cuts. All in all, after a quite a bit of research finding the correct wall plug, I'm happy with this unit and it will help me finish my 2nd log splitter build."
"Mine didn't last 1 year quit working so if you buy this you better think about what to do if it breaks and who's going to fix it at least it came with the handle I can tie a rope to it and maybe use it for a boat anchor."
Best Brazed Tools
The American Carbide Tool E-style K21 grade carbide-tipped brazed tool bit has a neutral cutting direction and a sharp tip with a 60-degree angle for fine threading on steel and steel alloys. The tool has a side cutting edge and end cutting edge, with the tool shape style defining which cutting edge is principal and auxiliary. A right-hand tool has its principal cutting edge on the right side of the tool to feed into the workpiece from right to left, a left-hand tool feeds into the workpiece from left to right, and a neutral-hand tool will cut either left to right or right to left. The side cutting and end cutting edge angles, in combination with the angle at which the tool is positioned in relation to the workpiece (also called the lead angle), influence the tool's cutting shape and action. Positive rake angle provides a sharp edge for making continuous cuts.
