When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

These are known as the Silver and Deming drill bits because they are the LARGE sizes! This set goes from 9/16" to 1". You get eight different drill bits. The sizes are: 9/16", 5/8", 11/16", 3/4", 13/16", 7/8", 15/16" and the 1". Each drill bit has the 1/2" cut-down shank, so they can be used in any 1/2" chuck. These bits are made from black nitrite high speed steel. The entire set comes in a wood case where each bit has its own place.

Actually, I think the \"Silver & Deming\" denomination may have come from the railroad built between Deming and Silver City, NM in 1882.
