Excellent value for money.

I've been a diyer for many years and can't resist collecting tools when I'm out shopping . I picked up a set of forstner drills from a German owned supermarket. Their tools are normally very good and the best possible quality. That's why I was completely surprised at the set of forstner drills I opened in my workshop. They were so rough I had to finish of the cutting edge on a bench grinder. I managed to finish the job but they were losing their cutting edge all the time .
This prompted me to look on Ebay for the ones I've just bought. I'm amazed at the quality, even the wooden box they came in would make a fine jewelry box with a bit of stain and varnish.

Poor cutting

These bits are not well machined. Straight out of the box they did not cut at all. After much sharpening by hand and reshaping they cut but very slowly in hard woods. Might do better on softwood.

First Time User

Hi,
This is the first time that I have used one of these,
I found that 35mm bit that I used, to fit some kitchen cupboard hinges, to be very efficient and easy to use.

(Instead of using a normal high speed bit and having to mark and measure depths Etc.).

All in All the kit is definitely value for money.

Regards & Best Wishes

Good quality

I bought this for my craft jobs. They are stronger than I was expected. Detail: they need to be used in high speed drill to be more effective.

Good product for good price.

Good value for the money. I tried it on chipboard and it's working absolutely fine. I'm only DIYer so if you looking for pro version it may not be for you.

Ok for the price

Ok for cheap bits but they do need a sharpen. Very poor quality compared to a Famag. They just take a while to chew through softwood compared to better quality ones.
