(I apologize ahead of time If I posted this in the wrong section)

I'm in the process of starting an import business. I'm trying to do some market research and need some help, since I don't know too many mechanical engineers myself I want to know if any of you have any experience with these tools (I do understand the general concept of these tools and uses) and I want to know how the market for these tools are, if sold at a relatively low price? My competitors (most online wholesalers) sell these items at a high cost, I can cut these prices 40-60% since I will be buying from a manufactuer who produces these items. I will be importing "cutting" and other various tools such as:



  • Sin Flute Countersinks
  • Dovetail Cutters
  • Woodruff Cutters
  • End Mill Cutters
  • Center Drill
  • Adjustable Hand Reamer
  • Morse Taper Finishing Reamer
  • Repairman's Taper Reamer
  • Taper Pin Reamers
  • Chucking Reamers
  • Flat / Rectangular Tool Bit
  • Square Tool Bit
  • High Speed Steel Tool Bits
  • Cut Off Blades
  • Counter Bores
  • 3 - Flute Center Reamer

Can you please help me with any knowledge you have concerning "cutting" tools in general and the market for them (north america)

thank you !

Did some research looks like lots of woodmen use these tools, and people in the oil industry?
 
Had my central air system checked when it sortta wasn't working. I guess I hadn't replaced the filter. Guy suggested I might want to get a UV filter accessory. He said it would "kill bugs and particulates". I know UV can kill the former, not sure how he thinks it's gonna murder the latter. Now I'm finding out there's more than one type of UV filter: one for the air flow and one for the coil. He was suggesting we might get one for the air flow, but now we'll have to change the bulb...
