2 words: China junk!

Useless, couldn't even cut a small 82mm hole in 16ga thin soft sheet metal without blunting and making general messes. Bought for this one hole I needed didn't make it. He comes back.

Pros
  • Hole Saws and Accessories
Cons
  • Very expensive

It is excellent for cutting holes in soft, not thick pine wood.

I wanted to make wheels out of it. It is excellent for cutting holes in soft pine no more than 1/2 thick. However, the manufacture of wheels is not so much. It will leave a lip no matter how you cut it. I packed and sent it back. I'll just keep using hole saws.

Pros
  • Power tool parts and accessories
Cons
  • Damaged

Suitable for hole saws and accessories

Works well, obviously need to watch out for drilling speed, but I make very clean wheels in .050 aluminum with some WD40 as a lube at 250rpm. If you need to make a precise hole or repeat , you can place a vernier caliper between the flat on the centerpiece and the flat on the slider and adjust from there. I'm not sure how long the tool stays sharp, but it seems easy enough to sharpen. Just wear goggles and keep an eye on the location of the clamp, you don't want to run this guy into the C…

Pros
  • Hole saws
Cons
  • Some little things
