jbanzai 113 Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I'm looking for a source for metric, specifically 3mm, bits. I've seen them on AKbuilder, dinzag,and a few other sites, but I was hoping for something that was cobalt or titanium. Since I can't seem to find them locally, I wanted ones with strenght since I may go through a few. I'm also looking for a 3mm reamer, but with all the different options, I'm a bit lost. Would a 3mm hand turn reamer work? This would be for a FSB/GB install. I'm thinking about drill slightly undersized at 7/64" ~ 2.8mm and then reaming to 3mm exactly. My FSB is loose and I thought drilling undersized and reaming after would be the most gentle and precise while keeping the FSB in position. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MLM0358 107 Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 McMaster Carr is excellent --has most everything. But I've found lower cost source for reamers is KBC tools Part # 5-018-1180 is decimal equivalent of 3mm will run you about $10 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
