For the price it’s great
I used this for drilling about 18 holes in some plywood recently and the bit did well – kept its edge, didn’t produce much tearout and didn’t seem to get too hot. The depth collar is okay but a bit more refining during the manufacturing process would have made it much better, as it is I found it to be a bit rough and marred the wood a couple of times (which wasn’t an issue for my application but on a cabinet it would be). The measurements on the shank are not likely to hold up to a year of shop use and personally I wouldn’t rely on them to be accurate anyway (that’s a me thing).

A little rough around the edges
Does not look as refined and nice in person as they show it in the pictures, and also not exactly the same shape. Though it made fairly quick work of boring a whole in the end of a 4×4, it did have some minor issues: 1) the depth stop tried to dig into the wood when I reached the set depth (the edges of the stopper are not as smooth as they need to be). 2) the set depth was less that what was set. I set it at 25mm, and when I measured the whole, it had an actual depth ranging between 21 – 23mm. Probably better to error on the safe side, but I was surprised at the inconsistency. But, for a sub ten dollar bit, it’s decent even for those one-off projects.
Customer Review –
Works Well, but Limited Applications
While I have built a few cabinets in my time as a hobbyist woodworker, it is not my profession by any means. I own a drill press, a specialty 35mm Forstner hinge bit as well as a standalone hinge jig. I was curious to try out the depth stop on this bit and now, having tried it out, I think it’s cool, but not entirely necessary for most people.To explain, let’s consider the scenarios where a built-in depth stop would be useful…If you own a drill press (which would be ideal for drilling clean, 90 degree holes), then you already have a depth stop. Sure, a stop on the bit is extra insurance against drilling too deep, but generally unnecessary.If you don’t own a drill press, but own a hinge jig, then there should be a built-in depth stop on the jig. Here again, a depth stop on the bit would be nice, but unnecessary.The only scenario in which a depth stop on the drill bit would be required is if you don’t own either of the above and plan to freehand the hole with a handheld drill. This is not ideal and will not produce great results because a 35mm (1-3/8″ in freedom units) Forstner-type bit is on the larger end of what is manageable with a handheld drill. The bit can easily catch on something and the torque will twist your arm, the workpiece, or cause the bit to “walk” on your surface and damage it. This is not the bit’s fault, it’s yours. Furthermore, it is unlikely that your hole will be perfectly square to the surface of your workpiece, potentially causing fitment issues. Can you do it? Yes. Should you? Not unless you are very skilled with a handheld drill.I guess if you’re just roughly slapping together some shop cabinets it’ll do the trick, but then why use expensive euro hinges?

Easy to use in a drill
The bit showed up packed in a plastic storage container. The fit and finish is pretty good. The stop collar is a close fit to the bit shank, and slides easily. It comes with an Allen wrench for the stop collar that can be stored with the bit.I usually set up the drill press to drill for 35mm pocket hinges using a forstner bit, but thought it would be great to be able to grab this for just a couple of pocket holes. I dove right in and grabbed a piece of 3/4″ poplar 5 core veneer face plywood to see how well it worked. Setting the depth is simple; slide the stop up to the depth you want (FYI, the scale etched on the shank is metric) lock it on with the set screw, and you’re all set. The bevel on the cutters is really shallow, so it cuts fine shavings and is slower than a forstner bit, but it doesn’tjam, even when I pushed it The cut is very smooth and the cut hole diameter is just over 35mm as shown in the pic. I hadn’t clamped the plywood, but it didn’t budge.For those without a drill press, or for a couple of quick cuts, this is a simple and effective way to drill for 35mm hinges.

Works nicely
This is a nice bit. It has the adjustable height which is super helpful. Works well and no issues so far.

Cuts well
Cuts well, minimal tearout. The adjustable stop collar is a nice touch.

Useful and cuts very well
This tool is useful and cuts very well. The carbide-tipped bit works efficiently on wood, plywood, and MDF. The adjustable hole positioner makes it easy to get precise cuts, and the included L-wrench is handy for adjustments. Great for woodworking and hinge installation projects.

The bit chews away to the side, it was difficult for me to drill straight. I had to remake my guide because it would enlarge the hole to the side. To be fair I was using a handheld drill. And a super feature of the bit was the dept control, it really insured that I didn’t drill too far.
