I stopped at a used tool outlet to check out a table saw for my son and found some premium high speed steel. Cleveland Mo-Max cobalt and Crucible Steel's REX is some of the best U.S. made HSS and at $3 and $5 a piece, about half the prices on eBay if you can find it. It's a simple thing, but I'm pretty geeked (my wife doesn't appreciate it at all).

I bought some of the Mo-Max from MSC some years ago and paid a lot more than that.

The nice thing is, he had a whole bin full of the stuff. I'll be going back for sure without the wife, so I can have more time to look around. Big Grin
