Ordered some drill bits yesterday lunch as i wasn't able to get to my local supplier this week, only paid 1st class post (not £5 extra for next day). Arrived 2 minutes ago

Bought something off them awhile back (can't even remember what it was !) but I remember great service.

I have always recommended that company in the past. In my model engineering days I used to buy stuff from them regularly - only had one issue (a tap that must have been made of cheese) and they put a replacement in the post straight after my phone call.

Three-quarters of my taps, dies and drill bits came from them... and you can often get odd sizes in carbon steel instead of HSS for a fraction of the cost, which is fine for one-off jobs where you may never use that one again (as long as you are careful).

Just one thing to watch - they charge a minimum amount of postage, so always try to get your money's worth within that minimum!
