Yeah this is what I need for Christmas. The router bit set to trump all router bit sets.
I though about putting this in tool talk but more appropos would be around the coffee pot...
This manufacturer has put together a 3,530 piece router bit set retailing for $254,044.44 but you can have it on special price for $179,999.99 this Christmas.
Just think about having every profile you might ever want at you fingertips... er, foot path...
and the steel shelving is free.
from the article:
Looking for the perfect gift for the woodworker on your holiday list? How about a lifetime's worth of router bits?
Carbide Processors, Inc., a tool distributor and maker, is now offering a mega set of bits--3,530 of them!--from Southeast Tools, the company that took Best Value in Fine Woodworking's most recent router bit test (FWW #191).
Regularly, the set would run you $254,044, but Carbide is offering a large discount that brings the total down to $179,999.
[LONG PAUSE]
"Are you $%^&ing kidding me?"
It's no joke. Almost $200K for router bits. It breaks down to roughly $51 per bit, and the set does come with 2,000 lineal feet of steel shelving to hold the collection. Yes, but does it come with a barn to hold that shelving?
By the way, Carbide Processors is happy to put together a smaller, custom set for those who can't take on the second mortgage for the Donald Trump set.
