    I use the standard Miebach (Colt) brad points, and the pen bits. They are both the best brad points I have encountered. The Pen bits clear incredibly well, and I can drill 2.5" through hardwood end grain without chipping, blowout or having to drill and extract numerous times to clear the flutes. Expensive, but great product. And, they are available in sets from The Best Things. http://www.thebestthings.com/newtools/miebach_bits.htm
    There are some videos out there on these bits as well, but I do not remember where.

    http://www.fairburyfastener.com/norseman.htm is where I have bought mine. Eppico in California also sells Magnum bits, and you can find them on Amazon.

    For twist points (metal / general purpose) I have a set of the high end Milwaukee bits: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ohs_product_T2

    I thought I bought directly from them but it's been a while.

    Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good.

    Mike.... Is your suggestion based on the brad points or the twist bits? Or both?
