    She should be terrified! That is a DeWalt #2 Phillips bit. All contractors know that DeWalt bits are terrible. The tools are great, but this means that her daycares contractor is incompetent for not using superior Diablo bits.

      Quite so. Though I’d say Dewalt tools with Milwaukee bits and Diablo blades. Those shockwave bits can take a beating.

        I agree, I also use Milwaukee bits, but got a new pack of Diablo one a few months back. They seem to have the hardness of the Milwaukee bits, but don’t get stuck as much in the mag bit holders when pounded in with a DeWalt Atomic impact.

        10mm sockets have too high of a vapor pressure. They’d have evaporated long before she could find one.

        Any socket left by a DeWalt-bit-using contractor, would likely be Pittsburgh branded, and best left to go back to the dust from whence it came.
