Review on πŸ”§ Bosch AutoStart Carbide Mandrel with HDGQA for Enhanced Performance by Stephen Cernatescu

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nearly perfect for power tool parts and accessories

Works well with smaller hole saws but I used 4 1/4" and it wasn't enough to keep up with the cutting start. It is best to make a small indentation with a small Bosch tile drill (1/8"") and then you have a correct starting point. After that, he holds the saw in the right place to get started. A small carbide burr on the end would probably help. The centering tip breaks if the pressure is too high and does not always ensure a clean start with larger saws.

Pros
  • Carbide tip provides longer life on porcelain and granite
Cons
  • Concise instructions
