    Carbatec have a set (drill, pilot/countersink, I think there are five differnt sizes) for about $39, and all are adjustable if that is of any help.

    Damn the expense. Get the Festool pair - burr free, no chatter and a snip at $150!





























    yeah right.

    Derek,
    The Sachys-Robinson countersink is a single blade/flute countersink. It doesn't chatter at all. (yes, I found before I got the S-R that the multi-blade ones do chatter, and you end up with a hexagonal countersink holes!)

    It has a quick change hex shank. GET IT!
    (I don't work for them)

    Old thread ? Oldie but a goodie...

    I bought some hex rod from metaland to make some of my own. After a few, it was easy to heat the previous ones up with a gas stove or flame, pull out the bit (whatever you wanted in there - drill/countersink/grinder) and 2 pack in the new one. 100% re usable...
    The rod was pretty cheap as well.... 30 seconds on the lathe and you have a new quick release blank....
