serious question- i know they exist as i had some years ago but cant find any for sale now

any body know who sells left handed/ anti clockwise drillbits??

 

Snap-On do them

 

last set i seen was in with a set of stud extractors

 

what would you use them for? probably a stupid question . . .

 

iv just been on EBAY and put in left hand drill and they came up

 

what would u use a left hand drill bit for that you couldt use a standard one to do ?


serious question ,


beef

 

extract a stud or something

 

spiky i always had it pegged that you would just use a small standard drill bit , then use a left handed tap or extractor ?

not an actuall drill bit

use a left hand drill bit for drilling the hole in a broken stud and somtimes the stud will come out while it is being drilled.

Surely if it will come out when being drilled it can't be that tight because as soon as the drill bit gets a hold of anything it should cut off whatever it's biting into? Therefore a normal drill bit with a stud extractor should be fine?

 

Anyone seen the square drill bits for square holes?

Yes they do exist

 

square drill bits the 1s for morticin wood not metal???

 

anybody want some left handed screw drivers, or some tarten paint

 

mortice cutters? square cutters with a drill bit inside giving a nice square hole.

 

cheers guys , i tried ebay earlier but found nothing, got a page full now

bang on the money



trouble with stud extractors is that it puts pressure on the wall of the broken stud making the problem worse and nine times out of ten it will snap in the hole or just not grip

i know what your saying but it has worked a for me in the past, must be something to do with the heat and vibration
