> 3 dayI saw some other reviews saying that they broke this plug cutter but I cant imagine what they were trying to cut or do with it. I cut plugs out of red oak, an extremely hard wood, with no problem. This plug cutter is strong and sharp.

Greater than one weekI purchased this cutter to make plugs for a series of cutting boards I am making. The cutter performs admirably and gives a nice clean cuts but I have been through 2 of these cutter in about 4 months under light use. I have begun cutting only 3-4 at a time because heat build up seems to be the reason the first two failed. I am cutting Osage Orange and Walnut primarily, both hardwoods but not beyond what I would expect a cutting tool to be capable of.

> 3 dayThis fit my needs perfectly. I needed to replace a number of popped plugs in my floor. They fit the 3/4” holes smoothly, as opposed to the cheaper cutters that sometimes are too large or too small.

> 3 dayI only cut out two plugs and out of Pine but I drilled a hole in my project with a three-quarter inch Forstner bit cut the plug loose from my stock fit in very nice and tight very happy.

> 3 dayDid exactly what I needed it to do. Which was cut a bunch of plugs for a wood floor. I used this and the smaller 3-pack. I highly recommend a drill press. I want to say you NEED a drill press, but I know some of you will be all, “this guy is an idiot, I did it freehand.” And maybe you did. The smaller ones you can get away with it, but even then you’re going to wander, and if you a have super smooth surface and plenty of material and time, then yeah. But this one, forget it. My only complaint is that it can’t quick change and I was drilling many different sizes.

> 3 dayI cut 10 plugs in 3/4 hard red oak flooring to plug some 3/4 holes in my floor. Max plug depth is about 0.50 with the cutter all the way down. Some burning of the oak can be seen in the pictures which I was unable to avoid with any speed or cut pressure. Best performance was at 450RPM and light feed pressure. These plugs were cut with a table saw at 0.47 long. The tool produces a tapered plug with a slight radius at the small end to aid in insertion. Small diameter is 0.742, large diameter is 0.762. This produced a good interference fit into a 0.75 hole. the tool seems well made and other than the slight burning, performed very well. For comparison, I cut a straight walled 0.745 plug using my CNC router and .125 bit. I ended up using the tapered plugs.

> 3 dayThe tool cut a very nice plug. Only thing I didn’t like was the tool got hot quick.I expected it to be sharper.
