    It's ok

    I use it to drill holes into my wood turnings. Lets say I need a hole that is 1.6" diameter, I use the forstner bit to get rid of most of the material tehn use a chisel to get rid of hte rest. It may be great for soft woods like Walnut etc. but for maple, it lacks sharpness to cut through the heavier woods. I would recommend this to friends, but for SOFT WOODS ONLY.
