Wire-gauge drill bits

I cut out and tape paint codes on the wall in front of me; that way I don’t have to keep flipping back to them while building my latest car model.

Most of you probably have a set of wire-gauge drill bits, No. 61 through No. 80, and rightfully so, as they are an invaluable part of any modeler’s tool kit.

I suggest you add drill bits No. 51 through No. 60 to your toolbox. You need them if you do a lot of drilling and tapping holes for screws.

They are found individually at hardware stores. Micro-Mark has a set of bits from No. 1 through No. 60.
