## Description

International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions.

Review: I got this for less than 100 USD in Singapore, for what I got, I can't complain. Die cutter can't bite into stainless steel properly. Mild steel and other metals aren't problem. Ratchet handle isn't very good, it's not stable in XY axis, you will have problem threading a screw with the die... unless the rod you have for making the screw you have is properly tapered at the top and fastened. Achieving 90 degree angle consistently is hard. I couldn't cut a chamfered 10mm rod, because when I press hard on handle to make it bite, ratcheting center will wobble. Coming to the taps, cheaper tap I got from China (a local, less known brand) cuts better into mild steel vs this one. I didn't attempt with harder metals. It's acceptable quality for softer metals. Thread gauges for measuring pitch, they are fine so far, tested normal and very fine threads, the match is good. I wish the ratcheting handle was better, not sure if I need to separately buy a die handle now. You can probably use a vertical press drill, attach your rod there and put the die in the drill vise, cut the initial 2-3 threads before moving onto ratchet. Not good for my taste.
Review: El artículo llegó puntual. El estuche se nota resistente y alberga a los troqueles sin que estos se suelten. La orientación donde se almacenan los machuelos puede cambiar de posición y esto hace más fácil su selección. Se nota un buen acabado en el producto.

**Q: Will this set work on both metal and wood?**
A: Yes, absolutley! This is a Great set, i've done work on red oak hard maple and steel, no problem, works like a charm!

**Q: What are the sizes on the dies?**
A: They are all the popular sizes that you find in the non ratcheting sets.

**Q: I will be working with metric sizes (5mm - 8mm). Will this work with these taps and dies? And will it work universally with generic metric taps and dies (round and hex), or only specific types?**
A: I can ansewr about the taps....it should be no problem 5-8mm, but the dies I cannot give you an ansewr because I have not tried that myself yet. I bought the set primaraly for the quality. I planned only to tap with it. But it is a very nice set and a good purchase even if you only tap with it and get a seperate die handle.
