Drill Bit Sizes

[Harvezter]

Hello All,

Currently the smallest drill bit I own is 1/16th of an inch so I need to buy really small ones. Only problem is, I dont know how to tell what size I need... I found these sets... but I have no clue how big they are actually... are they the small sized I need for thsi hobby? Like to drill out distrubitor caps for spark plug wires etc...

and if they are the right sizes... any suggestion on which set I should get or does it not matter?

Thank You, Jared

I have the #61 -#80 set. Get a good pin vise and you're set. For plug wires I use wire wrap from Radio Shack (30 AWG) and use the #73 bit. What I did was drilled holes in a piece of sheet plastic using all the bits and labeled the holes and saw what size wire fit into what size hole.

I bought 2 sets form this guy on ebay called Mr. Leggs. Here is a link, and they are cheap (you get 2 sets). They are a little soft, but wirth the money. I like the harder metal bits, but like I said for the price you can't beat it.
