365 drill set

[james]

ive seen the 365 set sold for £40 for the set which seems good but are the bits slightly too small in size, wondered what others thought.

The drills are fine for most usual pipe sizes. I bought the pack with 5 or 6 different sizes, Used them a few times for showers and for one floor that the radiators where removed. They drill ceramics all day long but if you have a big porcelain job needing holes drilled add the £40 onto the quote and replace any dulling at the end of the job. Oh, the dull ones will keep drilling ceramics!

I got a Genesis drill set from a company called boydens in Croydon, currently on a special offer of £80.00p, nice bit of kit.

Sounds expensive compared to these bits which are pretty special. Checkout the topics started by '365drills' in this forum: http://www.tilersforums.com/editorials-articles/ - really unique design and really inexpensive really for what they can do.

Bend the pipes over and tile over them, let the plumber buy expensive drill bits, there are his pipes, more beer tokens for me:shades_smile:

£40 quid is an easily quantifiable cost than can be added to a customers invoice. Just think that the jobs using pure porcelain cost £5000 because you are looking at £40-£80 per square meter for tiles.

And £25 per square meter to fit them.

Slicing holes into them can cost a fortune if you buy expensive drill rigs.

So on balance £40 is nothing.

You need a straight blade for cutting porcelain

And a set of drills to bash out the holes

If you want top quality finishes like this

Then its diamonds for the work. And I make you (and everyone else) the same promise.

If you dont like them. FOR WHAT EVER REASON then its a full no quibble money back guarantee including full refund on postage. We dont charge any "restocking fee".

Basically I am an honest bloke. Got a good product. People like it. Does what it says on the tin. And I try and earn a fair profit on it. Yes you will always get those banging on about getting cheap bits in from china but that the same argument as saying save £100 and get a polish tiler to come in and tile for £50 a day and not £150 a day.

At the end of the day we want to do is provide a great service and product and earn enough to pay out morgage, go on holiday, and eat Christmas dinner.




And heres what the £39.99 kit does

£25 a metre to fix porcelain? I'd rather sit at home watching repeats of Fraser! Like you say, £40 is nothing :wink_smile:

Cheers. I believe we sell at a fair price considering the cost of alternatives out there.

On ebay I reached a feedback score of 800..... *hooray* And as many of you who use the site will know to get that level happy comments then you have to work very hard for each and every customer. Just the slightest thing and they will slate you...

Yup 800 positive compliments and only 1 complaint. And even the complaint was about me not having enough pictures in my ebay ads.... Not about the product!

We were jumping through hoops to deliver during the postal strikes.

Must admit though I was livid with the guy for spoiling my 100% record.

is the power of drill you use with these bits important?

i am about to buy another bosch 36v lithium ion drill. do you recommend a particular cordless voltage to suit?? ie minimum 18v etc

cheers
