Notches are fine, but not accurate

The guide bearing is not perfectly aligned with the blade and is also off-center. The beat also has quite a lot of beat. It cuts well, but I have heavily sanded parts that I cut out to get rid of the little bumps left by the non-concentric drill bit.

Pros
  • Add rounded edges to different surfaces and projects, or create small ledges that can be used alone or as part of ledge extensions
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Useful thing that serves its purpose.

I have made many feet of quarter round oak baguette with this drill and it is still sharp and useful. I have a couple of Yonico bits and the only ones that were unsatisfactory were the spike and groove bits which broke off when first used in oak. These and other rounds just keep going.

Pros
  • For use with table mount and hand router
Cons
  • Only available in black

You get what you pay for.

You get what you pay for, but let me be a little clear. For the past 3 decades I have worked as a woodworker using various router bits of varying quality. Yonico bits are mid to low end bits that will do what you need to do if you are careful and patient with them. These aren't top beats that leave a much smoother edge, but you'll have to pay at least twice as much to get this level of quality. I needed to round the corners of a white ash top chest a bit, and knowing I would still have to hand…

Pros
  • Fine quality C3 tungsten carbide blades for a sharper, longer lasting blade
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide
