Makes Good Holes - Forstner Bits

My main reason for purchasing this set was the need for blind holes for European hinges. I also used a 25mm bit to install the hinges in the front of the drawer, which slides out to reveal the electronics. These bits worked great in both hand drill applications. My only caveat is to be careful. I've used this with 1x2 boards (actually 1.75") around doors with raised panels. I had to be extremely careful when drilling the holes to avoid breaking the raised panel in the door frame. The 35mm drill required for Euro hinges leaves very little room for error.
