I wish to every interested versatile craftman to receive at least partly the amount of cool/cewl tools tightly described in a hard to deny manner by stumpy nubs, if not in life, maybe in heaven. Which craftman doesn't dream of having a hall or hangar assorted (to be asserted?) with everything wanted to realize an own minded concept, instead of having to use tool sets hardly gotten spared as if the craftman is supposed to chant with remnants. Not really wanting to mention all the tool and similar stuff not or hardly available anymore (if the devils cave shall remain unscathed). So where would we get the money from not being able to be devotive "tool monks" as beings with two legs with a still pumping heart?

You can pre-drill a pilot hole with a 1/16” or 1/8” twist bit, then run the Forstner bit in halfway from each side. No tear-out. Perfect matches every time.

@veikkoimmonen7300 2 жыл бұрын
@@Night56Owl Was just thinking about that, and have a solution in mind: 1. Start the original hole with the larger bit, go just ~1 mm deep or so. 2. Switch to the smaller bit and go almost through, just the tip. 3. Use the larger bit to finish the hole from the opposite direction - this hole will then meet the starter hole from step 1. You need to be careful in step 2, though. If the center thingies of the bits are not equal size, auto-centering the smaller bit may not be as accurate as you'd think.

Another tip: Drill with a small bit (2 mm), and then can drill with the foster bit on each side, so you dont have to use the foster bit to the bottom until it appears to the other side (that us dificult to do, normally oneself pass all the wood to the other side), but with the small hole, you can easily stop drilling one half and flip it and drill from the other face of the piece of wood.

I recently had a project that required seventeen 2" holes drilled in 3/4 plywood. After blowing out the first few holes, I did the following: Drilled a small pilot hole, 2" forstner just over halfway through, Flip the work over and drill a 3/4" hole from the center on the backside, Use a flush cut router bit from the backside. This kept my bit and drills cooler as rotating between tools gave them time. The backsides never blew out, and I had nice clean holes on both sides.

Fisch forstner bits are excellent. Right after I first saw a video about them on this channel, I purchased one to try them out. It's been years now, and there's never been any tear-out at all with the wave-cutters I bought. Thanks again James for the recommendation - and I definitely agree, everyone should try Fisch. And like James, I still use spade bits, but only for drilling in used wood (that may contain nails or when I drill holes through the ceiling). Note: They have different types of forstner bits; apart from the cutter type, they have different shank and tip types as well.

James, another AWESOME video! Thanks! A tip I learned about Forstner bits that you didn't mention is starting the hole with the Forstner bit in REVERSE. If you start in reverse you don't get the tearout that the sawtooth Forstner bits can create. Start it in reverse, cut through those initial fibers, then drop it into forward mode and finish the hole. Saves having to use a scrap piece... Your content is awesome and appreciated, another happy subscriber!

Great tips! Love the blue tape ideas. Another thing I’ll add, for a piece you can’t easily flip (like making dog holes in a work bench), start the hole with the large/final size bit, just go down an 8th or 1/4. Then hog your way thru with a smaller one you can even use a spade bit or auger, then follow up with the forstner to finish the hole. Your initial hole will act as a guide to locate it.

I have an excellent forstner bit tip that may help. I needed to fill some screw holes in some wood with oak dowels so that I could re drill them and get the screws to bite. I took a half inch forstner bit and tried drilling a piece of wood and putting a half inch dowel in it and it was very loose. The next size smaller forstner was way too small. I put a cheap forstner bit into my drill press and took a large metal file and held it against the side of the bit and used it like a lathe and took the bit down about a 1/16. It may seem like it would no longer be able to cut but the forstner bit has enough of a cutting surface on the face of it and it still worked well enough and still made clean holes. I had to cut 99 holes with that bit and it worked perfectly fine. It obviously did not drill as well as it did before I took a file to it but it was totally usable. I put wood glue on the dowels and hammered them in and they were nice and snug. Be careful not to take too much off so stop and test it in a piece of scrap wood with a piece of the dowel that you're going to use. Just don't use a forstner bit like the ones he is advertising here. Just get a cheap forstner bit from the Home Depot. They probably make a special bit for drilling holes to fit dowels perfectly but I did not have that. This method work perfectly and only cost about $7. You should probably mark the bit that you do this to so that you know that it's not a standard size bit.

A recent video I watched 'BANNED: Woodworking's most dangerous tool?' hooked me. Wow. Who knew about quandrants? Not me. I wish I knew this when I was repairing a post to my front porch. I now know how to use the tool in a much safer fashion. Sorry to see you suffered an injury. Your accident has gone a long way to showing me to be careful when using this tool. Anyway, watching it, this one and others, I am in awe of the simplicity of what you suggest and how informative your videos are, thus making it time well spent. I somehow know in future I'll need to fix something, and I also know one of your videos will come to mind, making the job that much easier to do. So, I am thanking you in advance.

Only yesterday l was researching how to drill a blind hole in a guitar project I’m currently working on. Just thought of this whilst watching your video and not sure if this is an old trick. If a hand drill is all you have and need to make blind hole to a specific depth, make a through hole in a scrap piece of wood then score two small lines on the inside of the scrap guide piece. The first line is the top of your bit when it touches the work piece and the second line to the depth required. The distance between the scored lines is your depth. Secure the scrap piece over where the blind hole is to be and carefully drill down, frequently checking if you can see the second line. To make it easier to see the scored line, colour it with a fine tipped Sharpie. The scoring will prevent the line from being rubbed off as you drill down. I haven’t tried this method yet but it should work.

When using a saw-tooth forstner bit I'll first run it in reverse to "score" the top fibers. Then forward to finish the hole. Less tearing.

I always run counter-sink bits in reverse, because they've always made tear-out otherwise. =) -It takes more time, but I think the end-result is worth it.

This kind of useful advice reminds me of advice from old timer carpenters, the ones who could rip an 8’ sheet straight as an arrow with just a hand saw. Useful and practical, well thought out.

I bought my fisch black shark set directly from the ceo of fisch this year at AWFS. He said he could only take cash. Apparently he had lost some money at the tables in vegas (jk, they werent expecting to sell stuff so they didn't bring a card reader). And I asked him about the process, so unless "forged the old fashioned way" means milled by state of the art cnc, thats not true. Great info in this video, and fisch bits are definitely the way to go!

Love this channel. Here's one which I did while using a forstner recently: Cutting 5/8 through ply and the layers of each ply (cheap HD crap) kept getting stuck in the bit. Raising the bit and the ply still wouldn't come clean. Rather than stopping the press, cleaning it out, and restarting, I just raised the bit, and blew it out with compressed air while it was running. It was powerful enough to eliminate it, plus it cleaned the rest of the workpiece so I could finish the hole.

If u have saw tooth forstner bits and don't want to buy "wavey" ones, you can run your sawtooth forstner bit in reverse with low speed and low pressure to make a clean entry to your hole. Running the forstner bit in reverse will still sever the wood fibers without letting the bit bite the wood and dig in which can lead to crushed/ripped/liffted wood fibers. Once the surface wood fibers are cut then you can go back to running your bit in fwrd. With the proper amount of finesse this saves me from cutting ugly holes.

Another great vid. Small tip when graduating up in size (adding to the last tip in the vid). First, start with the largest bit, i.e. the one you will use for the final size. Drill with it only a couple of mm deep. THEN start using a series of smaller bits. This way you have a perfect guide at the end, for the final, large, size.
