I've bought one of the 50 pc kit and they are fine (not from HF, but
another supplier). For *hobby* use, note that the mix is more like the
typical industrial mix- perhaps a bit on the small side. It also
includes router bits and some odd pointy bits that don't have cutting
edges that I don't know the purpose of (registration?).
