I have gotten to the point where I rarely use the fractional drill bits. I picked up a complete set of numbered drill bits and using the chart mentioned above usually drill my holes a few thousandths of an inch wide. Then as I need to I can see which drill bits I use often and buy those in quantity. I have also lately switched to the stubby drill bits but based on Ray's comment will now try the Screw Machine size.
