hello welcome to Enots engineering I'm Alan
in today's tool review I have two items the first being set of drills 99 pieces they range from 1.5 mm to 10 mm and the smaller sizes have multiple drills so you can replace
any that get broke or damaged and the second item is a magnifying glass on a anglepoise stand so you
can place the magnifying glass where you wish it can be clamped to a desk or a table or a shelf and
is powered by a USB cable this doesn't come with the USB charger but you can use a standard phone
USB charger so let's go into the workshop see how we use it
we'll start with the drill set first
this is the drillpro drill set 99 pieces it goes from 1.5mm up to 10mm
on the box it says M35 Cobalt twist drill they have 118 degree points and a titanium coating
we start at the small size 1.5 mm drill 16 pieces 2mm drills 16 pieces
2.5 you get 15. 3mm you get 10. 3.2mm you get 10. 3.5 you get 8
4mm 8 let me come up to the top here you get 4.5 3 5 mm 3 5.5 2
6mm 2 6.5mm 2 8mm 2 and 10mm 2
let's see how the drills perform when cutting I've just placed a strip of Steel in the vice
and we'll just fit the 3mm drill into the chuck
I have the speed set at 1600 revs per minute I've not center punched the steel
I just want to go down and see if it will drill through without centre punching it or centre drilling it
that started to cut easily
It gives the impression that the drills wobbling but I think its an effect of the light
as I was feeding it it down by hand I could feel the drill cutting it had no problem cutting through that
let's try another drill
I'll take this drill out put a 6.5 mil drill in
move it along a bit
I'll change the speed now to about 600 rpm once again I've not centre to drilled
I wan't to see if it will start to cut or wether it will struggle
No problem there it started to cut straight away
I could feel that cutting through
didn't seem to have any problems with that
let's take a closer look at the finish and the drill points under a microscope
okay I've just set my microscope up
I'll just switch it on now that's surprising that it still works because it's been in the workshop
for a year in the cold and the battery's still have a charge in they are rechargeable batteries
we start off with the 3mm drill and then we'll look at the 6.5mm drill
so this is a 3 mil drill
I'll just have a look at the drill tip this is the 3mml drill there we go
that's the one side of the 3mm
a little bit of metal on the end there turn it around to the other side you'll see the angle
you can see the ground Cutting Edge where it's been sharpened
we'll now look at the 6.5mm drill see the edge
just get that in focus
That's The Cutting Edge
turn it around you can see microscopic particles of metal from where I drilled
that's the one side
let's go round to the other side
it has a good Cutting Edge although it does look rough it's highly magnified you can see every
detail on The cutting edge including the particles of swarf they're still stuck to the drill
move to the edge let me try and see if I can focus it any better
there we go so that's the one Cutting Edge
turn to around to the other one
there's the other side
all little spots and lumps and fragments of Steel that I've cut
that's the two drills we've used I'll put those back
and I can use this set to make up the lost and broken ones in the set I use daily
well those two drills cut okay but you can't really do a test just with
two drills so time will tell whether the sets are any good or not
a nice little box
and the next item is the magnifying glass
the magnifying glass doesn't come with the USB charger you need to use your own charger
it's the same charger used for charging phones
the clamp fits on this end
that fits into there and you can tighten this up
and it has quite a wide opening so you can fix it to a thick piece of wood or a bench or a shelf
so you clamp this to your desk this can move up and down like a normal angle poise lamp would
magnifying glass on the end can turn you can lock it in position
so I've found a USB charger that should fit onto there let's plug that in
if we look at the light switch the power on
its a white light
LED bulbs all the way around the edge of the magnifying glass you can turn the brightness of
the LEDs up or down and it's has about nine different stages to the bottom go back up
so about nine different stages and then the other switch switches to the
the softer light and that's the same you have nine stages of brightness
from off to on fully bright it's just a softer light to look at
so now let's look at the magnifying glass
and then this will be difficult to let you see
judge the magnification
and that's without it if I'm putting the magnifying glass on
you can see the size it doesn't say what the magnification is
I've bought this for the workshop so I can see some of the finer details on the edges of
drills and tools that i sharpened and also it's useful if you get the Splinter you can see where
the Splinter is save hunting for a magnifying glass and tweezers keep them in the workshop
one thing I will say is that if you buy this for your workshop and you
put it in the window of your Workshop make sure that the sun doesn't shine
through the lens because it could magnify the light and start a fire in your Workshop
so in that case you'd need to put the cover over the front so the sun can't shine through
so in the workshop I've just clamped it to a shelf and I can pull it down
to get at the magnifying glass and it's near a socket so we can switch it on for the light
and it will make it a lot easier if I get a splinter to be able to see and remove it
well that's the magnifying glass fitted onto an angle poise Stand with the illumination from some
LED lamps and the set of drill Pro drills from 1.5 mm to 10mm that's it for today
I hope that was interesting hope you enjoyed it and we'll see you next time on enots engineering
