9+2 Set (11 Pc) TG Tools KIK® HS Brad Point Set
The KIKŪ HS Brad Point Bit has a unique tip design allowing it to bore wood, plastics and sheet metals exceptionally fast, clean and easy. The tip contains 20% more cutting surface. To accommodate the speed with which this bit drills, the flutes have an additional extraction ridge to clear the bore continuously and efficiently. The tip design permits plastics, laminates and even acrylic sheet to be drilled without melting, clogging or melting. Sheet metals are drilled with no burr left behind. KIKŪ HS Brad Point Bits are available in standard jobber lengths and 8-1/4 extended length. The extended lengths have a hole near the tip for pulling wires through the hole with the bit that made the hole!
11 piece set only $27.98

7+1 Set (8 pc) TG Tools KIKŪ Spade Set              
Conventional spade bits can only drill holes in wood and can only go in a single direction. The "revolutionary" design of the KIK® Spade bit from TG Tools allows it to drill, wood, laminates, plastic and even non-ferrous sheet metal. In wood, the KIK® Spade bores faster due to 30% more cutting surface. By eliminating the brittle tang found on common spade bits, the KIK® Spade can even bore curved holes for those tight plumbing and electrical installations. On plastics and laminates, the KIK® Spade bores efficiently without melting the material and will not "slip" or "skate" from the start. With six cutting edges and more cutting surface, Chrome Vanadium 40 Steel was chosen for manufacture to allow the bit to flex when necessary in those tough situations when others simply bend and break.
8 piece set only $27.98

8 pc KIKŪ Forstner set
Made from 60 Carbon Steel and Titanium-coated, the KIK Forstner Bit from TG Tools drills, routs and channels wood, plastic, acrylic and more. The bit operates smoothly in any direction—even curves—making it easy to control. Bore the hole the way the conduit or pipe bends. Correct misaligned inlets. Bore blind holes without piercing thin laminate. It's a great bit for hinge or anchor inserts. Plus, the open cap design prevents clogging, and the three-flat shank means less chuck slippage. Also, the bit includes a free heavy-duty protective case.  
8 piece set only $64.98

Midsun Specialty Products Inc., based in Berlin, Connecticut, is a manufacturer of “self-fusing” silicone rubber tape products. 

The company was founded on the premise that if one firm could focus their attention on producing just one product with concentrated effort, the result would be the highest quality product at an affordable price. We have achieved just that! We can make more self fusing, silicone rubber tapes in more colors, shapes, widths, thickness and sizes than anybody. Our quality assurance program, and our experienced team of plant and engineering personnel, allows us to provide our customers with not only an excellent product, but excellent support as well.

Oddly enough, most individuals who come across self-fusing, silicone rubber tapes think of it as a new product. Nothing could be further from the truth! State and municipal utilities have been using it in electrical applications for years. At one time the military was the primary purchaser of this product. It was through their experiences that the incredible versatility of this product was discovered. When we say that it has been field tested in the harshest of conditions, harshest is exactly what we mean. Think about it for a minute self fusing silicone tape is used in all branches of the Arm services.  They even nick name it ‘F4’tape because it was used extensively on the F4 Fathom. Midsun Specialty Products are manufactured from a specially formulated silicone rubber compound and in manufactured to the U.S. Military Spec AA-59163 (formerly MIL I 46852C) Type II, Triangular Guideline and Type I Rectangular Self Fusing Silicone Rubber Tape.
