Drill bits, is there a reason to use those
instead of just drills (round)?

tell you what hole size is needed for
which tap size.
Yes, I have the table on virtually every

If you are working in the trade, a "drill is generally the machine
used to make the hole while the drill BIT is what does the cutting.
