"Apparently the trick is to negotiate a contract with them, if you use enough volume of products to do so. While I can't say what we pay, I can say that what we pay is usually significantly less than the ridiculous numbers they put on their website."

"He said I have 2 back up drills invade that one breaks so I looked at them and they are too short,"
I do a lot titanium parts making holers ..carbide drills coolant thru = no headaches (as long as you have the right RPM and Feed)
Normaly I select the drill I check for length of cut (how deep is going to drill and have suficient flute length for chips evacuacion) as well as OAL, (how long is going to be extende from the tip of the holder) I place the order and give them the paper work.

if you're doing it for the first time here are some points to remember when doing a mill custom tool
MUST be draw only half of the tool in the TOP view X+ Y+ quadrant
Endpoints defining the open boundary of the tool MUST BE all the way to the center line
If you use a center line it must be dashed
The tool MUST be a single colors
NO duplicates, no over lapping, lines must meet center line, no short or pass center line
