"We moved into a new house with some maple trees in the yard, and decided to try our hand at making some maple syrup."
"I drill a 7/16" hole in the cap and insert the plastic tubing, and use a strap around the tree to keep the jugs from blowing away."
"I did learn that it is better to warm these up before trying to fit the tubing and taps together, and that a little time at warmer temps to soften and straighten the tubing lines is helpful."
"Decided to tap some trees on my property this year, came across these not knowing anything about tapping trees."
"These have worked out great."
"Last year I used larger metal spiles, but large food grade hose is very expensive."

"I bought this set of bits for a few shelf projects I wanted to make with MDF."
"The box they come in is pretty cool but is cheap compressed wood and after a few uses the nails started coming out of it and After using these bits I would say the price is what got me to buy them for sure they are very cheaply made and the bits without bearings perform ok but the bearings are junk and fly apart way to easy but after replacing the bearings with ones I ordered from another supplier they are ok bits."
"Just got these today, routing super soft pine, two different bits edges shattered in under a foot of work."
"On top of that, it was rated pretty high by consumers so I thought this was exactly what I needed. As nice as it is to have all the different kinds of bits, I still recommend buying higher quality individual bits that you need."
"After less than 1 foot of total usage of the roman ogee bit, the bearing flew apart and ruined my wood."
"The set is a bargain, but unfortunately for me, while using the 1/4" straight bit to cut a groove in some MDF board, the bit broke in half."
"Within the first minute of using the flush cut bit with a bearing, the bearing shattered into pieces."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"This helps immensely with aiding to get the pipes to fit inside their counterparts much easier so you don't have to wrench on or hammer fittings and risk damaging the pipes- Much smoother deburring than the common 3 blade ones and it feels like it will last."
"Steel circular file teeth appear to be very durable - we'll see about that after several years. Note that according to Ridgid this is for tubing or conduit not steel water pipe. (I suspect that in a pinch it would work OK - hardened steel.)."
"This is the PERFECT deburring tool no matter what your field."
"So I keep one in a soldering bag, one in my plumbing bucket (use with Milwaukee press tool), and this latest will be with me beburring EMT. I haven't have to debur any stainless steel, so I can't comment on the efficacy there."
"Good chamfering tool, worth the money if you run copper pipe, also works on plastic."
"I just received this and tried it out on Type M rigid copper and soft 1/4" OD copper tubing."
"used this on different thicknesses of copper lines, worked very well and really helps you get a clean flare."
"What can I say..... it's Ridgid!"

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"Although it is a drill and tap bit in one, I strongly reccomend drilling a pilot hole if you are working with anything other than sheet metal. Just pick a bit about the size or very slightly smaller than the drill section of this bit and pilot the hole with that. The good: 1/4 inch speed lock base, tap with your portable electric drill, threads fit well, great quality."
"I did use aluminum tap fluid/oil."
"I've used a couple of the bits numerous times & they are still as sharp as the day I purchased them."
"The Greenlee Combo Drill/Tap Set is Simply Amazing."

"I made brackets to hold generic bike mounts(purchased on Amazon) and it worked great."

"I found myself doing a fair amount of electrical recently and these things work great for tapping holes into electrical boxes for grounding screws."

If you want the best, payseven times as much and purchase from a reputable American manufacturer. Some people give less than five star reviews for these bits complaining that they are cheap Chinese junk. I can't understand reviewers that buy a $10 tool, then complain because it is of lower quality than a $50 version."
"I bought this set several yrs ago for myself first, and they have done what I'd expect from them."
"These bits would not be suitable to use for making tapered holes as each bit comes to an extended point."

"I had a smaller version of this kit for many years and it has been a go to for my day to day uses."
"Don't really know how to evaluate drill bits, etc., but offers a great variety and every bit I have used has worked well (was especially interested in and thankful for the variety of bits for concrete/bricks as opposed to wood)."
