Review on Starrett KD0414 N 4 Inch Diamond Holesaw by Jeremy Tyson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good value - 4 " brick holes for light boxes

I wanted to install a light on brick garage paneling. Apparently this was an option the original buyer didn't want and finding a contractor to do it is difficult. I'm something of a handyman and my biggest fear was that this 4 inch blade would be exactly the same outside size as a 4 inch lightbox. I took an old cinder block and cut a hole and to my delight the light box had a tight tolerance perfect for the box the light will be hanging from. Cuts better and the cutting speed shouldn't be slow as steal though when I'm at high speed that if you are NOT perpendicular to the cutting surface, the blade will compress and give your wrist a quick jerk. saves your wrist from some sharp turns.The cuts look great, like the pros.

Pros
  • Efficient cutting of hardened steel, fired ceramics, cementitious aggregate, non-metals and other difficult-to-cut materials
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
