I drill jars & vases by the thousands with almost 4 years experience. I purchased a very expensive diamond drill bit from Advantage Drills, Inc. due to the claimed better performance and longer life. I've always been able to drill up to 300 times with one, cheap $18 diamond bit made in China.

With Advantage Drills, Inc's $150 bit I couldn't even get to 10 drillings!!! It just self destructed into pieces! The first one, which they replaced with the one I just described, started crumbling on its second drilling! Remember that I accomplished up to 300 uses with a cheap, $18 Chinese bit many, many times in the past 4 years. I sent everything back to Randy, the claimed owner, who proceeded to cuss me out when I called him with a fervor rarely heard from a seasoned sailor!!

Randy told me to go f*** my own mother! This guy is really out of control and, as you can surmise from his offensive attitude, he was completely unwilling to refund any money despite this trash product's defective design. He defends this garbage drill bit despite the obvious. Never have I been subjected to such vile and abusive verbal treatment - never!!!

Advantage Drills, Inc. should be avoided like the plague! If your purchased product fails due to defective design you will probably get another one likely to be identically defective - not your money back! And, if you dare suggest that it is his product which is at fault, and not you, Randy will possibly treat you to an overwhelming onslaught of disgusting verbal sewage.

The past owner, Randy, died several years ago.  It has new ownership, and hasbproven to be a valuable, honest supplier.  I highly recommend doing business with Advantage Drills.

#1 REBUTTAL Owner of company

This consumer has a severe negative argumentative deceiving and mental problem !

AUTHOR: Randy Lobeck - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Sunday, December 07, 2008

We have been manufacturing diamond tooling for over 30 years with over 2000 consumers using the products with no problems. This consumer requested a diamond core to drill bottles. After great length in explainning the procedure of use, he purchased the diamond core metal bonded. A days later he called and told me the bit was not cutting the glass. As is asked what RPM he was using, whas he using water, and others, I asked him to send the bit back to inspect. Upon receiving the bit back the cutting edge was mushroomed out and burnt along with being black.Severe downward pressure will do this. I called the man and eventually found he used the bit at a low or slow RPM, which was explainned at the initial purchase, is totally incorrect. I offered to even send a replacement bit. He then became rude, argumentative, and out right threatning. I immediatley told him I would not be talked to in that manner and hung up the phone. He immediatley called back and became insane with screamming.Through the attempt of communicating he explained to me that he had been drilling glass for four years and no one knew how to do this better than he.
The next day he began calling my secratary, 7 times,and cursing using profane language at her and stating he was going to complain and cause harm to the company and us! I am the chief engineer for this company and have been manufacturing diamond tooling for over 30 years. given classes and seminars for large corperations and schools. Never was I vulgar or profanic! This person has a severe mental disorder and needs pitty. There are insecure mentally deranged people out there trying to take advantage of people and companies for self gradification.We strive for quallity and service. But all tooling has to be used properly and it is not the fault of the manufactuer if it is not used propperly.
