I bought cheapo corded ozito one and was very surprised it worked so well (going through thick metal posts). I think the bit was almost as expensive as the drill heh. I rate them.

Would there be a particular bit or set to buy? If I get one I only need something cheap and basic for general use

I think the cheap sets (any really) will do the trick but for more dense stuff I usually use/buy the more expensive ones individually as I keep on breaking the cheaper ones lol. It's a graveyard of incomplete sets here :(

Thanks, it wouldn’t be anything too heavy here

We did 90% of our renos with an aldi bit set. Just get a mid set and update the bits you need as you wear them
