I posted this over at Woodnet but would like to ask it here also.
Anyone use the sets from Lee Valley or Rockler? LV's only come with the two cones which needs to be used with a drill or in a drill press. The Rockler 3-piece set comes with two cones, a handle and a quick change chuck. Which is the best to use? I don't have a drill press, but I do have the HF mortising machine that has an aux drill chuck so it can be used as a mini drill press, and a cross sliding vise mounted under it. Both sets are about the same price, but can get the LV set within a couple of days as opposed to Rockler's 7-10 delivery.
Thanks and take care,
Ed
