Review on Bastex Forstner 16 Piece Precision Woodworking Set: The Ultimate Tool Kit for Woodworkers by Joseph Katipally

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Value for money power tool parts and accessories

I bought this set because I needed a bit but figured why not buy the full set right away. The bits are good quality, very sharp and should survive any project I might have. The box is handy for storing bits, but I have a few negatives. The bit size is stamped on each bit, but some are difficult to read as the stamp is not well finished. The box is cheaply made and the latches seem to break at any moment. The retention system to protect each bit can be improved. So you get a quality racket in a cheap box. However, the cost of the bit outweighs the cost of the box and I would still buy this set.

Pros
  • GENERAL USE: Forstner bits are ideal for drilling precise holes in all types of wood. Ideal for high speed drilling in plywood, hardwood and softwood. Works great with hand drills and power drills.
Cons
  • Not bad but...
