I've written a tool that I need some feedback on. It's designed to help you figure out which drill bits are close to the one you need so that those of us who like to "sneak by" don't have to buy yet another bit.
Here's how it works:
Select your bit size, set your tolerances, and click the Cheat! button. You'll get back a list of bits within the range you set, their sizes, the variation from the size you need, and (if you're logged in to the system and have your bit collection stored) which of those bits you actually have.
You can get there just by going to http://www.penventory.com and clicking the Drillbit Cheating link near the bottom of the page (you don't have to be a member or log in to use it.)
Try it out and send me some feedback! I'm specifically looking for ways to make it more user friendly, show results in the least confusing way possible, and find out from those in the know what a general rule of thumb for "acceptable" tolerances would be.
