This Forstner bit set excels at doweling, creating pocket and grommet holes, countersinking screws and drilling out knots in wood. The pre-sharpened Forstner bits cut precision holes without tear-out or burning. Bits over 1 in. have a saw tooth design for faster cutting. This durable high carbon steel Forstner bit set comes in a wood carrying case. Bore precise, flat-bottomed holes in wood, in any orientation with respect to the wood grain. They can cut on the edge of a block of wood, and can cut overlapping holes. Because of the flat bottom to the hole, they are useful for drilling through veneer already glued to add an inlay.
