I received my bit yesterday and my friend gave me his that he received a week ago.
Thank you Bosch for the free bit. I was at OSH today and checked to see what brand bits they carried(more on this later). They carried Bosch and the 1" bit(made in China) was priced at $15 and change.
Now the reason I was looking for bits was to compare quality. I have both the ship auger and the spur auger bits. The finish quality of them is not good. They might function ok, but they are full of burrs and the cutting edges are somewhat dull and nicked. The ones in the store appeared to be finished a little better than the freebees.
Again, thank you Bosch for the freebee.
