10-Piece Hole Saw Kit for Wood | Durable Carbon Steel Power Drill Hole Cutter with High Precision Cutting Teeth – Woodworking HCS Hole Saw Kit for Wood, PVC, Plastic, Drywall

Metal is too thin and bends. Used the 2.5 to make a hole in 1 plywood and saw shank bent making the saw teeth not flat against the board. Then the shank ripped through the flat portions that keep the saw from rotating around the shank, becoming useless. I didnt even finish the first hole I was cutting. Next up I tried putting the drill bit in the small arbor to use the 1 hole saw. The set screw sticks out enough to interfere with the locking nut making everything uneven and unbalanced. Totally useless.

I ordered this because I needed to cut a bunch of 2.25-inch holes into a 1/2 plywood. After cutting the first hole the cutout was stuck in the saw. I had to disassemble the whole thing and smash it on the ground to get the wood out of the saw. The next time I tried cutting from the top and then I tried to finish by cutting the other side of the board. Again it got stuck and I still cant get the wood out. After all this effort I ended up going to home depot and got myself a Milwaukee single-hole saw and it cost as much as this entire set, but I was able to cut out 10 more holes in the time it took me to get one drilled with this set. Cheaper is not always better. This saw cannot access the underside or remove the cut wood. It also doesnt seem to cut in a way to create space for the wood to come out. Really I dont understand what this would be good for.

I tried to use the largest 2.5 hole saw to cut through 2 of wooden floor from my crawlspace towards my distribution panel to run some conduit. The hole in the saw which normally has two flats to drive it, rounded out so that it no longer works (see picture for comparison of good drive hole vs bad). As the largest hole saw in the pack this is the most torque demanding. However the saw was evidently insufficiently hardened for the task, hence the 1-star for durability.

I tried to use this for the first time yesterday. I cant use the smallest hole cutter. The bit/mandril that comes with the set is thick. When you put it into the smaller of the two shanks, the small hex screw wont tighten flush. Consequently, the smaller hole cutters wont fit. The non-flush screw prevents the hole cutter from fitting onto the shank. The smaller hole cutters dont fit onto the larger shank. I tried using a smaller bit from my tools, but that didnt work. This would be a great set if it had a thinner bit for the smaller cutters.

I was needing to drill assorted size holes in 2 pvc piping. This set worked perfectly for that project.

The pilot hole drill will not get through anything at all, it failed to make a hole through MDF. One of the larger diameter saws bent out of shape on the first use drilling some MDF. The metal used for the drills is complete garbage, yeah its cheap but for a bit more you could get something a lot nicer that actually lasts a single use.

Exactly as described.

They provide a drill bit to help you line up. The drill bit works well in the larger mandrel, but does not fit the smaller one. The fastener sticks out too much and this causes the hole saw to skew as it sits on the mandrel <See the picture; note the small black bump on the left side above the threading>. Tightening the collar only helps a small bit. The skew is noticeable and causes oscillations while drilling. I emailed customer support about this, and they did not reply. I was going to bug them again but by then I had missed the return window. Buy your tools from someone else.

I had 1 hole to drill. The center bit snapped in half and the actual part i was using (2 inch diameter) bent to the side. Made it very hard to drill the hole. Eventually i got it to work but I would never trust this kit again after it broke on me. Do not buy if you expect it to last.

Easy to use. Cut through easily enough
