HELP!! Blood pressure rising!

Post by OldCorps »

I've spent the entire morning trying to find a source for 9/64", extra-length tapered drill bits for stem drilling. I've searched MacMaster-Carr; MSN Direct; Rockler; even every Mickey Mouse outfit I can think of. My head is spinning, my eyes are crossing, and I'm biting pencils in half.

PLEASE HELP me retain what little sanity I have left. :help:

Where can I buy these thngs?

Nate -

Thank you! I guess my dyslexia must have kicked in sometime early this morning. I had to have been looking straight at that dozens of times, but it just didn't register. My wife tells me I have "Tomato Soup Syndrome". There's more tomato soup on the shelf than any other but all I see are cans... that all look alike... can't find the "TOMATO".

I should have asked earlier, but I hate to bother folks with such trivialities. Now, I can order.

Again, thanks,

Gene

Thanks for the rapid responses. I've got a pile of new drill bits on the way from MacMaster. They're already at my local FedEx waiting to be delivered Monday Excellent.
