    G'day - an' hush ma mouf!!  Told you I didn't know all that much -
    perhaps now you believe me!  You see, New Zealand is a very small
    country really, and our busy manufacturers can't make everything here
    - the market isn't big enough to make many things pay. There is only
    one supplier of jewellery tools for a start. We even have to
    subsidize our steel industry. So one never sees an awful lot of things
    here that seem to be commonplace in bigger countries.  So many thanks
    to all those who took time and sent me enlightening information about
    solid tungsten carbide drill bits.  I still would have thought that
    they would be too brittle.  I have used the tipped drills for years in
    lapidary and many other things, and they work well; I've even tipped
    lathe and other tools myself. But still haven't seen solid carbide 
    drills!  Thanks again to everyone.  And cheers of course.    John Burgess
