Remember. It's the thought that counts. They WANTED to send me a drill bit. And for that, I'm deeply touched.

I received the ship auger bit today. Very high quality bit. I'm quite impressed.

Mine showed up today. Looks pretty good for Chinese manufacture. Will give it a go on my next residential job...

"PRC = Peoples Republic of China.
Thanks for supporting the US companies folks."

Last time I checked Bosch was a German company?

HHHHmmmmmmmm?

Just where is Bosch made these days? The following statement is from a Bosch on-line review.

"This drill was clearly advertised online as having been manufactured in Switzerland.
When received, the drill was clearly marked "Made in China.""

Speaking of Bosch...
My hammerdrill decided to amuse me by losing high gear in the transmission today while drilling ½" holes for concrete anchors. [Linked Image] Middle of nowhere western Kern County, and about 60 miles from the nearest orange square store... Took 2 hours for 8 holes [Linked Image]

PS.. it says "Made in Switzerland"

On the bottom of the bit it says " Made in China, Maximum 600 rpm. Hope it don't melt over that. I've got a 900 rpm Milwaukie drill [Linked Image]

I had completely forgotten about my bit until yesterday there was a strange envelope in my mail box. It seems like a pretty decent bit.
