Also, looking to get a different brand of bits to expand my experience/opinions, and also I like having different colored stuff lol.

Edit: I work as a Maintenance guy, so #2 Phillips all day lol. The hardest work these bits have to go through would be drilling into studs to install drywall.

A lathe RPM is defined as the rotation speed at which a lathe machine is turning. The correct lathe RPM depends on the size of the tool, the material being cut, and the operation being performed.

Currently I have Makita XPS bits, but I would like a second case of screw driving bits, and have been thinking about Shockwave so far. Only thing I really need is magnetic tips and some T15s. Any advice on other 1/4 hex impact brands I should look at and how they perform?
