I've bought a few drill sets over the years for pepper grinders, from the cheapo Chinese sets up to the slightly better sets, to ultimately a Colt set. One by one each has got blunt with the hard abrasive stuff I turn, and sharpening them has kept me going, but I always wanted something better. I bought a WoodCut Mill Drill, which is good if you have a central hole of 25mm, but unfortunately mine are usually 22mm due to the slim shapes. One day I will mill down the leading edge to 22mm and then mill a 25-22mm sleeve on the metal lathe.

But last week I called in to Carbatec and they had all the CMT TCT forstner bits in stock I need for all the Crushgrind pepper grinders I make (i.e. 22,25,32,38 & 45mm) plus the extension bar and I couldn't resist. Then I got on Ebay and scored a little empty padded microphone case (260x150x90) and proceeded to carve out the necessary slots that fitted in perfectly.

The big question, Will it fit in the trailer? Or does it have space reserved for it in the cab?:;

LOL. Actually it saves room, as now I don't need to pack the full set of Colts box that was twice the size :2tsup:
