You do not really need a metric drill set. Look at the referred add from Harbor Freight from CA. This 115 piece is usually on sale for $39.99. I just received their latest catalog and it is priced at $39.99. This is every size from #60 to 1/2". All you need with these is a drill chart. mine is by Starrett.

When this comes up type 01600-2rth in the search number block and tell it to search.

Wrong! I have searched and searched for metric drill bits and salesmen say what lee said "Look at the chart" Looking at a chart does not give me a 5MM hole.....close but not close enough for drilling prop adapters for electric flight. Thanks dsjbean for the link for the metric bits mine are on order.

Hey Lee, I got one like that from Sam's Club. I get the set that's labelled 1/32, 1/16, etc; and the set labelled 1 through 60; but the set on the right says A though Z.
What's with the alphabet? I never ran across that before.
Thanks,
Mike
