Definitely much cheaper...I don't use a lot of different bits for finishing simply because they are so damn expensive. I'm a real tightass with my tools and abrasives and try and get as much mileage from them as I can for that reason. That NZ store that has the monopoly on many of the quality brands really overcharges for product, so I'm always interested in any alternatives you guys can come up with.
