I have maybe 12 still indexes, including 3 of the letter, number and fraction indexes.
At times we had up to 8 people using the indexes.
Mostly went through 5/32, 5/16, 3/8, 1/2 and 7/16.
I haven't replenished my supply in several years. I have a bag of 5/32, but not jobber length. We used a lot of stubbies.
There were times when the drills were running 16 hours times at least 3. Or the equivalent there of.
I don't know any body guys that have done that much drilling.
