1/4 Trend router bit set at almost half price

[BradyS]

Found this deal on ebay. To me it seems a very good price. 44% off at 23.99.

You can also use code MAR10 for an additional £2.40 off. £23.99 is the price on Amazon too so not sure if it is a massive discount, but a reasonable price per bit anyway

I have the 6 piece of that set and paid £12 a while ago from ITS, so I think its a price you'll see again commonly enough.

BTW does anyone know is there a distinct difference between the green and the black trend bits? I assumed that the green were a proffessional quality, but you can also buy individual black bits for the same sort of money, so maybe not??

Usual thing though, I bet many of us have got sets like that and half of the cutters remain unused. I don't buy sets now, just individual cutters as I need them.

i purchased the 35 set (1/2") quite a while back and not really done much routing with it as a DIYer , but wanted a diverse set of bits just in case , so far i think i have 3 of the bits and had to purchase a special bit for a DIY job that required a depth of over around 46mm
I used Wealdon tools - excellent advice from the sales rep

Yes, but for what you've paid it doesn't really matter - and we can't tell which one we'll use next week. Nearly all my heavily used cutters are Wealden, but I have Trend ¼" and ½" sets and very useful they are on occasion. Certainly not money wasted

Thanks for that, have ordered some today
