DO NOT BUY THIS! for Power Tool Parts and Accessories

I've had so many different problems I don't know where to start. - The supplied instructions are barely legible. - Centering the device on a tree is easy, but once you start drilling it starts to move from side to side making it inaccurate. - I tried using it on 2 x 10 pine and the 10mm bit didn't drill through the wood at all. Drill! - Locks placed on drill bits to mark depth are not the same as pictures. They are about half the size and are not attached to any teeth. - The dowels do not fit in the template to allow the second part to be drilled to be aligned. - Drill bushings are cheap and flimsy. After a few holes, they appear to open up or deform, causing crooked holes to be drilled. Haven't used it enough to see how it does, buy it, it just looks like it. I wish I had waited that long to use it after I bought it. I would definitely return it but I'm not at my window. Save yourself the hassle and look for the best kit. This one sucks! I would give 0 stars if it were possible.
