Do you still think I got hosed? I got the mandrels cause I'm already
beating on metal.......didn't need the bench pin/anvil but it seemed
convienent. Until I decide exactly what types of benches I want. Already
have some coarse files,scribes, punches. All my fine drill bits are gone
and I'm sick of using cheap pliers. Maybe I should of bought those
individually.

I think I did fairly good my self. What should I have done?
