I've just bought one of these for £180 from Screwfix. So I hope the cheap ones on eBay are rubbish. :-)

I can't see this working with plasterboard it would crush the edge.

Try here. http://www.hadley-reclaimed.co.uk/ I've had some new unbanded scaffold boards from them.

I carry them in the pack they came in which is a foam lined plastic case so there is no touching each other.

How long do you expect a bit to last? I bought a pack of three Trend bits. I've done a male cut, and female cut three dog bone bolt holes and a straight cut in 40mm good quality worktop. Looking at the bit, it's well used at least half way up, and I wouldn't want to use it again. Is this the...
