And then a few other 1-60 ones.

I'm going to see if I can find a set in a store around here since I would like to be able to have them by Friday so I can work on the wheeler once I'm home. I saw that GRIP tools had a set, but they're a cheap knock-off brand and I can't find a local store that carries them. The only place I can think of is an unclaimed freight place about an hour or so north of home. I know they carry GRIP but I'll have to call them to see if they have the right set. The ones online were $14.99 for 1-60.
5 bucks w/shipping for a 61-80 set!?!? Can't beat that with a stick! I bought a set. He has 96 sets left.

$15 is a steal for a 1-60 set too.

You find any #97 sets yet? The guy I called said the bits actually go up to #100, but I've never seen them. #100... That's gotten be, what,,, little bigger than a hair???

I might end up buying that set too depending on how successful I am finding a set in a store.

All the sets I saw only went up to 80. I can't even hardly imagine trying to drill with anything that small! If your hand twitched or something you'd snap it right in half!

Here's the 1-60 set from that same seller. That's the brand I want to try and find around here.

I use a small pair of vicegrips and gently clamp the bit (be careful not to squish the bit). Then spin the jet on the bit with my other hand being careful not to feed it too fast or it will bind and risk twisting the bit in half.

You'd have a hard time even chucking it into most drills. Especially if your drill has a 1/2 inch chuck on it. A 3/8 chuck might work with some of the smaller wire gauge drillbits, but the risk of breaking them is high.

21 bucks is a good deal. Do you know if GRIP tools are any good? I bought a set of drill bits a long time ago for cheap. They were cheap alright... The bits would un-twist themselves when I hit a snag. The metal wasn't even hardened and the tips were sharpened at all kinds of different angles. Like some drunk, blind guy sharpened them on a regular benchgrinder. Have to be careful sometimes.

I'm sure they're not. But I figure that drilling out jets is all I'll ever use them for, and if dreams really do come true, my next four wheeler won't have jets!

You guys ever considered trading currencies? FXCM (and most other places) has a free practice account with $50,000 in it. I was up to $162,000 before it expired! You can open a micro account for $25 and trade with 400:1 leverage. Wish I would have done it a long time ago.... Much easier than stocks and more profitable than any other video game I can think of!!!

Can you imagine what it would be like to not be able to drive your car on the road on certain days? China kinda makes living in MN seem "free", huh.

"Beijing will extend its post-Olympics traffic rules for a year due to their positive impact on road congestion and pollution, Agence France-Presse reported April 6. The rules have taken 930,000 of the city’s 3.6 million vehicles off the roads, and reduced pollution by an estimated 10 percent. The system uses the last digits of license plate numbers corresponding with days of the week to determine which cars may or may not be on the road on a given day."

Alright, so the local Ace has them individually, so I think I'll just do that for now. It has the stock main jet, so that's a 112.5. What range of bits should I get?
