Years ago I got some double ended drill bits. They were sharp on both ends, and were short. They were intended for sheet metal workers, and as far as I know, only came in small sizes, like 1/8". Those were the handiest bits. Not just because they have 2 usable ends, but because they were short and did not break everytime I use them. I just was drilling a 1/8" hole in a piece of 1/4" thick steel, and used a brand new bit. As always, the damn thing broke, because it's too f**king long for drilling in steel.
The reason I ma posting this is because I dont know where to buy those special bits. The ones I got years ago came from an auction which was selling used tools and other equipment from a plumbing and heating business that shut down. At the time I bought several boxes of hand tools, and a few other things, and found a container with about 10 of those bits in one box. They were so handy, but eventually I used them up.
Where can I buy some of these. Anyone know?
