I am not asking for someone to do anything illegal. Just asking if someone knows where to get the drilling kit, that's all.

Thanks

Sounds to me like you are in the retail business. I know personally of many foreigners in the retail business and in THE BUILDING INDUSTRY.

I'm not sure where you could buy them wholesale for your shop. I bought mine from Costco in the US. Try checking the shops along San Pa Koi Road to see if you can find something similar and maybe they will tell you where they got it from. Also, next door to The Duke's is a guy that sells every screw imaginable and he also has drill bits. Maybe he can source some for you.

That last post before yours, I'm not even going to go there.

The problem with these kits that you are looking for is that they are cheap nasty products from China, you'll find that they won't stay sharp and are basically a gimmick for the occasional home handyman.

I agree, most of the bits last just one or two times. Maybe make your own packages with quality bits. Plenty of good German bits around.
