The cheapest set I can find online in France (19 bits, TiN coated HSS) is 86€. Is that normal?
Gotcha about the leather. I have a few pieces of wood laying around, a cutting mat and some EVA foam, so I think I'll be fine for now.
And yes, a pillar drill would be dreamy, but alas as an apartment dweller who greatly needs to reduce the amount of things he owns, I'll stick with the hand drill for now. It's also not super practical for mudguards, we have two big ones at work and I couldn't drill them with the pillar drill, I think the curvature made it impossible because it was hitting the body of the drill.
