Drill bits

[killer-beez]

I am looking for a reliable web site with reasonably priced drill bits. I haven’t seen a site with a one stop shop. Also, can dull drill bits be sharpened? Thanks in advance for any help. [?][?]

You might want try these: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=1611

and get one of these:
http://www.amazon.com/Drill-Doctor-...d_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1211903235&sr=8-1

Except for the few oddball sizes, you won't have to ever buy a bit again. (unless you're a drilling freak)

Bits can be sharpened. I personally am not a fan of the Drill Doctor, but lots of folks here seem to have good luck with them.

My shop wouldn't be complete without my Drill Doctor. I'm a fan.

the huge HF set and DrillDoctor 750X make a wonderful set of tools

Glad it works for you, Frank. I wouldn't own one, but.....Folks I know in the metal working business think they are junk, but most people into wood working love them. I have to say I have used ours at the shop (when I can find it under the layers of dust) to do some bits and they drill well into wood. I will use it to make a split point for wood as well. But for metal, just doesn't put a good flute on it for some reason.
