The only difference I am aware of between normal and the tamper "proof" ones are the little indent in the middle, couldnt you just take a normal one a drill a small dimple in it?

or you can knock out or drill out the little nub/post in the tamper proof bolt?

btw, the bits are available at your local part source.

mine came in my socket set.

if u have a drill press u can make one but just go to a store and buy a set. there cheap enough

autozone sells these in a set all day for like $8

save yourself the time and money. just goto auto zone. they have the kit for tamper proof bits, or you can get the allen set. it has all of them, and they fold up.

i myself have this set. i need it when i work in prisons and banks.

ill see wht i can find here in the million of tool boxes and wont be the first bit tht iv ever drilled.... if there so strong y the hell atre they always stripping all the time and i buy dewalt **** and they still strip.. ill use my cheap black and deacker **** tht i got for xmas to drill into..

mrmikey32

umm. first problem is you use dewalt....

and fyi, dewalt and black and decker are the same thing. black and decker has owned dewalt for about 18 years now

well for ur info dewalt has lasted my dads company SWC for as long as he has been in bisseniss..and we have tryed all the other brands ant they die ithin amonth... have have my drill since i was 8 still use it too. my mom got my dad the big set of the 18 volt XRP set and they out porform all the others and they also last longer.... he uses them non stop somedays and they still perform like new.. it out performs the 24 volt bosce with ease mabey B&d and dewalt are the same but one it house hold cheap and the other is proffesional grade..

mrmikey32

hmmm. you must not really use your tools. since dewalt sold out to japan/chinese production, they have sucked. that would be why your old drill is still working. same is the case for all old tools. Once they started using the ****ty imported clutches in them, they sucked. I have gone through 3 dewalts. they make better paper weights then they do tools.
