Very aggressive cut - be careful with fine work.

For cutting holes in finished plywood for wire routing. The teeth are so aggressive that they can (and do) snap around (hand drill) and mess up some parts. I suggest you run it backwards at high speed and with some pressure to create a little groove so it doesn't bounce around. Once you do that, it will work fine with fine details.

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • Wire shorter than other picks

Accurate and Durable

Starrett Deepcut and Fastcut bits hold very well and cut 4130 pipe precisely (harder cut for each bit). I ended up with a better fit than other brands. My only issues were the lack of rigidity in my clamp and spring/arbor, not with the saws themselves, but these starrets tolerated even that. There's a big difference between a drill chuck and a mill or lathe with arbors that go straight into the collet fit, but I've done a lot with the drill chuck. The saws I've used the most have survived…

Pros
  • Hole Saws
Cons
  • Crumpled Packaging

Years of use and good quality

Works well. I can always count on Starret. Used for cutting holes in various types of countertops. When cutting thick material, remove the hole saw 3/4 of the way down, place a board underneath and clamp. Just drill through with a drill. Turn the board over, attach the hole saw and make nice cuts. If it sticks, let it cool. I take a Phillips screwdriver the same size as the hole I drilled, put it in the hole and gently/slowly bend the screwdriver to remove the split shank. The noise will almost
