I literally bought this set Monday for 35$ I got both sets tbh for the main purpose of drilling to bricks so thank you for the video it couldn’t come at a better time since I’m going to be using my new drill bits this weekend.

[@hans-jurgenwiegand7465]

Bought the bits, and the drill, but didn’t like the Registration site. Called the help number, and he did a fine job, registering my drill, in Real English! Quite an impressive charger, two batteries, and a very strong case. All for $200.00. Thanks for introducing me to another tool, that I didn’t need, but wanted after seeing your video!

[@tooltimewiththomas713]

Ya know, this really makes me wonder. Milwaukee offers essentially the same carbide bits for multi material. They claim all of the same materials these do. The milwaukee bits have white painted flutes vs the black flutes on the flex. Milwaukee ALSO offers the same 4 pack of carbide bits with red painted flutes that are advertised for masonry and concrete only, even though they look the exact same as their white multi material bits. I would love to see if there’s any actual difference between those two types of Milwaukee carbide bits, and if there’s any difference between milwaukees bits and flex’s bits. They all look the exact same.

[@jmackinjersey1]

This could be a time saver when securing studs to concrete or brick walls/floors. You can drill through the metal or wood studs and directly into the surface behind them in one movement, then set the anchor and don't have to remove/replace the drill bit or have multiple drills set up.

[@seanbrotherton542]

I thought the tile would kill it for sure. Can't really lie. They did the job and did it well. And the stackable boxes are kinda sweet if I do say so myself.

I may try these. They would benefit me greatly. I don’t drill very often, and I encounter various materials. These could last me a decade. Thank you.

For nut setters the MALCO C-RHX is simply the very best available! Not only are they durable they are reversible with 2 different sizes in the same tool and the magnet is by far the easiest to clean debris from.

Malco is the best hands down. I haven't tried Klein's or dewalts version yet. Probably never will

Longevity I have to agree with u on malco but it ain't perfect I use them installing hvac but if u get a taller head on a screw they start to wobble I keep going back to my flex 1/4 bit for those zip screws but I've used it so much its starting to round itself wear the malco never seems to if the malco was a tad bit deeper it would be perfect

[@awesomeness1113]

I'd like to see the bit go up against drill bits designed for metal, tile, and concrete to see how it stacks for speed and longevity. I don't expect it to win in any field but it would answer the question, is it a jack of all materials. If so, it's worth my money Thanks to you and your team Vince for all the great content you guys put out.

[@KGM1710]

Great video can we see a battle royal against the different brand bits see which one is the best

[@patrickmercante4376]

Vince, On one of your videos, saw you put a plastic pencil sharpener in a drill and sharpen a pencil. I flipped out, I have never seen one of those. Where can I get 37 of these? Thanks

[@Swordzskillz]

It would be great to see these same bits being used in different brand impact tools (Dewalt, Milwaukee, Bosch, & Makita). These are likely the tools your audience uses. I'd be willing to bet if we pick up these Flex brand bits, they're not being used in a 24v Flex impact driver. Consider the real-world application. Just a thought. Love the videos!

[@boosted2.4_sky]

I have the FLEX impact driver and hammer drill and I also bought the FLEX impact accessories kit...and use them..they're good...I mostly prefer DeWalt and Wiha bits though... but they work fine...

[@FatLittleOldLady]

10.08 I needed oil for my door hinges and tried to remember the very first brand of oil I remembered as a kid pre-WD 40. I could only remember 3 in 1. I am a firm believer the further back you go, the better, on oil. SO, the door that hadn't been used since probably 9 years before I moved in with my boyfriend in 2014 was almost completely covered in rust and I could not open and close it without bending the frame, but I got it loose with 3 in 1 and it functions as if nothing was ever wrong. Why the door was never used? Grow tent in the way. I took it down. That was super hard and it was so dusty and yuck! Yay!!!! So glad to see you using the old brand of oil. Made by the same company as WD 40, but imho better because no chance of over spray. I do love WD40, but I try to support old and new so I went with the oldest I could remember. So glad that grow tent is no longer blocking the door. I like these bits, too. I have no idea which brand is best, but I want a full set for fixing things around the house. Boyfriend delegated pretty much all tasks to me, except, what is too hard, we hire a super tall guy for 20 bucks an hour and give him 1 1/2 x that much when he does things super fast like he usually does and he did our gutters in 2 hours with only a machete saw and some other off purpose tools so he actually got up there and trimmed tree branches without us knowing, so that was worth it. Had I known he was going to do branches, I would have handed him my Ryobi pole saw, or reciprocating saw. It was especially good to see you using 3 in 1 because it confirmed to me that old is still a very good thing. Pro tip for disposing of old grow tents: cut them up into little pieces. I saved all the hardware because all hardware is expensive nowadays. I bleached what I saved and it was good as new. Now I can use that hardware for sewing projects. Man, I ain't kidding. That tent stunk so bad because at one point, cats were using the bathroom in it so I zipped it shut. The dust bunnies from being there since 2005 were massive. I almost puked dragging it out the door. :D

[@MosaicHomestead]

My mind was blown just with the porcelain tile, its practically impossible to drill through that stuff lol

[@joseperez-qf4gz]

I use these set of multi drill bits and I recommend to use and outside of house for putting up shutters because I use these for drilling in anchors for a pagola to anchor it to the ground it did not made it the second leg of the pagola the tip was gone when I was almost done with the second leg when I was drilling I use the ryobi brush drill the one that had the plastic handle through the drill that you see at Home Depot for 50 bucks it did a good job at doing it I was impressed that it did it. The hammer drill did get hot and had to give it a break after each leg was done and use the ryobi hp four mode impact driver to put on the anchors on the 2 setting on the impact it works wonderful and the brush hammer drill the hammer drill that was brush has 600 torque to drill into hard floor concrete that was outside and has tile on the floor tool since the drill bit broke I had Milwaukee and Bosch concrete bits which were incredible and lasted longer than flex bits did and the hex bit driver almost broke when I use it haveing trouble putting in anchors and the hex drive got rounded and had to use a makita hex drive that worked better to be I don’t recommend these bits sadly spend to much money on it like thirty dollars on it and it may not be worth it just get makita or Milwaukee or even dewalt bits and get Milwaukee concrete bits they work better and will last longer than these flex bits there tools may work great but some of there bits need work.

Bosch has a nice compact container for their multi material bits. It’s, like, a two inch wide piece of plastic with a long piece of clear plastic you can remove and then take out one of the bits. Nice and small but fits all five drill bits just fine.
