John, most people on this list will swear by the tools they have in their
shop:-) The reversing function on a drill will not be of consequence with
the newer pre punched kits. While a teasing trigger is nice, almost all the
holes you will "drill" on the newer kits you are actually merely reaming
them out to final size. On the rare occasion you actually have to drill a
hole, a simple punch mark will keep the drill bit from walking. As if you
cannot tell, I have used an el cheapo Delta drill from Wallyworld to ream
those 15000 holes. I'm waiting on my finish kit to arrive next week and the
el cheapo has performed just fine for me.
For all my other tools, I've gone the Cleveland or Avery route and bought
the good stuff and am not disappointed in my decision. I went with the 2X
and love it, someone stopped by my shop with a 3X and I didn't like it.
Why, because I was used to my 2X and was not used to the 3X. He loves his
3X though. It's what you get used too. I could even tell the difference
between his cleco plyers and mine.
Heck, buy those tools.........I had as good a time unboxing my first big
tool order as I did opening my emp. kit!!

I am almost finished with a -7. (Whatever that means).
But the most handy drill IMHO is a Makita or similar
rechargable. I keep two battery drills nearby. The
bits change out so quickly.
A large amount of heavy drilling is just not required.
I did use my air drill to upsize the riv holes on
those repetitive jobs.

Am about to start the wings dimpling and have this vision of a bench
dimpler with a foot-switch activation, to either make one or find one.
Comments from the group would be welcomed. Geoff
