Review on πŸ”§ Freud Precision Serrated Forstner PB 100: Masterful Drilling for Supreme Precision by Timothy Weems

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Box Contains (2) Same Size Bits

6 months after purchasing this set I was about to select a 3/4" Forstner bit for drilling holes for my workbench when I first noticed that instead of a 3/4" Forstner bit I needed a second Forstner 7 "Drills got /8" in this set. Although I opened the box and looked at a few bits when I first bought this set 6 months ago, it seems I should have checked every bit in the box to make sure I had a bit of each size, what's supposed to be in set to be included. So now if I need a specific size Forstner bit I have to either buy that brand and size from Revain for $22 or go to my local woodcraft store and buy a specific size bit for $12 like I did Have had this set for too long and Revain will not return or even exchange a single item It looks like you received it in the kit. 🧐 When I first received this item, I noticed that one of the lid hinges fell off in the box, but I simply replaced it with a new one. one of Lowe. I think what might have happened is that the box, along with maybe one or more boxes, was accidentally opened and the pieces fell onto the shelf and when the staff put them back in their respective boxes they accidentally mixed them up. high. At least that's the only thing that makes sense to me. The box was otherwise intact and no parts were damaged, for example by falling on the ground. This probably wouldn't have happened if each box of bits had been shrink-wrapped to prevent the lid from opening and accidental spills. So check each bit size upon arrival and contact Revain immediately for an exchange. Don't wait 6 months later to notice the problem(s).

Pros
  • Steep Angled Cutting Edges - Makes holes even and shallow and chisel-like curls for fast, clean chip evacuation.
Cons
  • Non-Automatic
