Another place to get carbide rods is:
http://www.goldmine-elec-products.com
They have individual carbide drill and router bits at $0.99 apiece. They
also pretty much always have a grab bag of bits. I just checked and
item no. G13259 is a bag of 8 or so bits for $2 -- a great deal. I've
bought these over the years from Goldmine to use in my Dremel tool.
They're a great bargain. When the Dremel HS steel burrs and router are
used on steel, they dull instantly, whereas the carbide bits keep on
taking away metal. They're the only bits I use. I tend to break them
faster than I wear them out. With regards to seismo pivots, the shanks
are a consistent 1/8" size for everything and the router bit were mirror
polished in the last batch I bought maybe six months ago so you might
not even have to polish them. So far as I can figure they're very good,
micro-grain carbide bits that come out of the circuit board industry.
Anyway, just another thought.

Charles Patton
