I was a machinist for the
I was a machinist for the first part of my working life after 4 years of Machinery Repairman in the Navy. I recognize a left-hand drill bit when I see it. For some reason unknown, even after reading the instructions that came with the Grabit set, I drilled using standard direction with my drill. Needless to say, it didn't drill well. It wouldn't even drill deep enough for the removal portion to grab and remove the #8 screw, even though I was using that end properly. I responded to the "No-Reply" email and, surprise, a reply came up for Anthony at Grabit. I explained that something didn't work and also suggested that this HAD TO BE operator error. The response said that he gets this regularly. Even though the directions say both drill and extract must be done in "reverse" direction. I slapped my forehead and looked at the Grabit package. Duh! Conspicuously written in bold arrow, "REVERSE." When used correctly, these things are a marvel. He even offered to replace the two that I damaged using incorrectly. Grabit gets 5, the operator gets 1. Anthony recommended 30-70 rpm as well. That was another surprise, but it works! My two-speed drill press only goes as slow as 160. Use your variable-speed cordless.
