This is for sale at Amazon:

The shipping is $5 though. But, it might be worth it for someone who needs a forstner bit once in a while.


$4 dollars.............

I ordered two of those last week but for $3.00 through Amazon not Tool King and did get free shipping by getting an order together to meet the min. Wanted a couple things for my Fuji so not hard to do.

I saw shortly after the Amazon stock ran out and Tool King kicked in. I guess Porter Cable is blowing these out and replacing them with PC branded kits. I hear the bits aren't the best but for 3 bucks who cares.

A year ago, a local big box (Menards) was selling sets of 25 Hickory branded router bits for $50. I bought a set thinking for $2 a bit, how could I go wrong! I could find out which profiles I used most often and replace those over time with high quality bits - Whiteside, CMT, Freud, etc. So far, I haven't really replaced that many of them.:D
