Snappy Tools Plug Cutter, 3/8

Great plug maker. Recommend using a drill press to ensure they are all straight and uniform. Take your time and let the tool cut the plug. Dont force it!

Worked as expected.

Cuts perfect and true 3/8 plugs. Ive probably cut close to 100 plugs from full figured walnut and around 20 from some really sappy pine and its still cutting perfect. I really like that if your able to cut the plug from 3/4 material it will chamfer the top of the plug on its own to make fitting them in the home a breeze, but I have cut plenty from 1/2 stock to save on material and just touched them up with a file. If or when it finally breaks I wont hesitate to buy another.

When set up in the drill press with a positive stop, this cutter reproduces perfect plugs from hardwoods.

cuts a good usable plug.

Works best in a drill press, it has a tendency to tear out some fibers from the plug so you will end up with a few trash plugs, overall not bad but could definetly be improved

Worked perfectly for what it was designed to do.

snapped the tips off just useing just a few times.

I was expecting it to cut a taller plug. Kind of pointless for what I needed it for as it cuts a 3/8 to 1/2 plug in height. Oh well. Ended up using a harbor freight plug cutter that isnt tapered instead. Booo.

making plugs for Ipe.... it says drill press only but i can make it work with my variable speed drill.... nice a slow to avoid over heating, cut a few and plug a few.... If it is cutting ipe easy enough than it should be fine on any wood at all.
