I give it a perfect score because of the price , fast delivery and it works perfect for me . I’m using this 2 1/2 inch bit to cut holes through many 4×4 pressure treated wood that’s cut into 2 inch pieces . im going down 1.2 inches deep and i need the hole cleared out . i was using a hole saw bit before this amazing one and then i had to use a chisel to clean out the hole . ( i have to do this many times over and over for a wood product that im making to sell ) . i dont have a drill press. im using a 3/8 cordless drill to do this . This bit fits perfect and is FANTASTIC ! when i need bits i will be a customer for life !Here’s some advice about using this bit : if you dont have a drill press and your gonna use a hand drill , you will have to make a jig /template with a hole saw by cutting out an 2 1/2 inch hole cut all the way through in a spare piece of wood. Then place that template / piece of wood with the hole cut through over the place that you want to cut with this bit . why ? you ask . because you will never start the hole without it with a hand drill . it will kick and dance and you cant control it . also , make sure you clamp down your template and project wood . and most important : when using this bit , power your drill slow and barely kiss the wood to get it started . YOU WILL BREAK YOUR WRIST IF YOU POWER UP FAST TO START . just go soft and slow through the template that you made and this bit will make a perfect clean hole right on the mark . oh , 1 more thing VERY IMPORTANT . this bit is super sharp and you will ruin it and make it dull if you use too much power . (thats why i use my cordless drill and not my hammer drill) . if the wood burns then your going way too fast . That’s with any hole saw bit of any type on the market and it will become dull and useless . you dont have to go fast and hard . anyway, if you take my advice then the hole will be absolutely perfect and clean . and your bit will stay sharp forever .
