Just had my first order from them - I reckon screwfix have some serious competition there. The range is nowhere near as extensive as screwfix yet; maybe just about where screwfix were 3-4 years ago. But the prices are good and the service great.
10,15,24mm*1000 bits all for 15 quid from ebay. There is no way I'll wear them out, as it's primarily for one sloping hole at 45 degrees through a 400mm wall.
True, but I have a problem with cheap drill bits - I've bought them in the past, and found them to be far inferior to quality ones. This applies to both masonry and hss bits. Having said that, I've never bought cheap sds bits, but I assumed the same would apply.
The difference I've found has been both in performance and durability (they start off pants and get worse quickly).
But 600mm length masonry bits are not going to get used that often, so if the cheap ones work it good enough. If you job is drilling 500mm holes though the whole balance changes.
Yes never had any problems with toolstation orders, all delivered the next day and so far (touch wood) any missing items or breakages.
And agree with all the points about buying long drills Leaving asside the sharpness issue given the power of an SDS drill do you really want some unbranded bit of unknown quality taiwanese whatever steel rotating round at revs with it being hammered at the same time? Could be a very nasty accident if one were to fracture under that situation esp if a sideways force was applied as well
Visions of a potential hari kiri situation springs to mind
Cheap tools have their place but not in that dept!
