Monty, the only problem with the 115 pc. drill index is it stops at 1/2 inch, which leaves you up the creek for Churchill's, & El Grandes,possibly some others, also the drills aren't quite as good as most American or European made drills, they have a tendency to wander due to the fact that they aren't always correctly sharpened at the factory, However, I believe that a drill Doctor will sharpen them and get the point on center, although I would be laughed out of my job for recommending such a tool [B)]
We buy 3 or 4 sets a semester for the school, and once they get sharpened properly, they are adequate for mild steel, so should work in most woods, we get basically the same sets, but we buy from MSC.

)], I drilled a piece of oak and engraved the sizes on some Aluminum and glued that on the board, still have to remember what kits use what. The only drill that is hard to find, is the 13.3 MM Curchill,- El Grande. [8][}
