Countersink drill bit. How to use countersink drill bit.

I created this video with the KZbin Video Editor (kzbin.info)

[@user-sg4jm9oq6d]

I always wondered how those bits worked, thanks for the explanation

[@TechnocraticKebab]

Really helpful; bought my first home this week, and trying to sort out the woodflooring, this has been invaluable

[@lynnquin8565]

Very helpful demonstration!

[@kathleen1060]

Simple and clear. Thanks 😁👍

[@CanadianMang]

When you screw two boards together you should drill a clearance hole only in first board! That way you get a much tighter fit between boards.

[@sebastjansslavitis3898]

or use partially threaded screw

[@Jason_Van_Stone]

Dude, it's obviously a test board lmfao

[@DiegoSynth]

Very good video. Clear, well explained, well showcased. Thanks!

[@fitfreek]

Just a couple mm into the bottom board is good to assist

[@jonathanr4242]

Very nice, concise and easy to understand instruction. Thanks.

[@zulfikranzulmos4066]

I like ur channel very informative and straight to the point.. Not much talking..

[@stevep764]

Simples, thankyou.

[@ButterBallTheOpossum]

I like to drill deeper with the countersink until I can put a wooden plug on top of the screw it looks great when done correctly!

[@prestwichian]

Excellent video thank you

[@davidklein4980]

Excellent

[@saynotospanglish9192]

Thanks. V useful! 👍

[@rubypearce8336]

Thx for the help I need it for schol

[@mahmoodkhan6623]

Is countersink bit size 12 mm the right size for a size 8 screw?

[@ShopperPlug]

you should mention which countersink bit size is proper for counter sink screw size.

[@zeroa6]

Thanks.

[@softwaretest1879]

thanks! ´What I am looking to learn for days is, do all of these drill bits go in all of the drills machines? I already have a Bosch drill machine, but the hammer-action one, which works with electricity.I want to buy drill bits for this machine., and I need to know which bits go into it. because its base/rear-end slips/slides into the slot of Drill machine.

[@zachthegreat6836]

Software Test yes, they're all machined off of a 1/4 inch hex bit

[@Claudg2008]

To smooth the wood in the conic hole you just made you may run your drill backwards for a few second.

[@bshortall1881]

Thanks

[@nashatmoushatak3149]

thanks..

[@ghengis430]

Thanks, forgot what to do!

[@mahmoodkhan6623]

I want to countersink a screw into sheet metal. Does the countersink bit have to be one that goes through metal? What I'm asking is, do all countersink bits go through metal too?

[@AC3dAvE]

Not all bits are made for metal. The wood drill bit may be usable but not recommended. The countersink bit has to be the one to go through metal as they can also easily go through wood.

[@mahmoodkhan6623]

@@AC3dAvE hi Dave, is there a specific bit you can recommend from home Depot?

[@felixf5211]

@@mahmoodkhan6623 For metal, look for a Weldon zero flute countersink. They're not sold at hardware stores. You can find one at an industrial supply house/site, or on ebay. Good luck.

[@mogbaba]

If I want to have one countersink, what size should I get?

[@jimodell3822]

That would depend on the size of the screw head. I would probably use a countersink bit on size over the width of the screw head so that I could sink the screw low enough to use wood putty and completely conceal it.

[@saffronsworld1508]

I am glad I took a wood shop class in high school where I learned what counter-sunk holes are. They allow for a screw's flat top to be recessed below the surface of the wood. That application I heard again later in life when I was in the U.S. Marine Corps. We guys referred to Women Marines as "countersunk Marines." Some of your viewers may not grasp my meaning, but then again, some will get a chuckle.

:)

[@finnyboy82]

Lmao

[@extreme748]

this is for v shaped screw head. how about for a flat screw head, what drill bit is used? countersink surely doesnt serve the purpose here

[@ByWelly]

works the same, the idea is to create a shallow indented hole deep enough for the screw head to be burrowed beneath the surface area - which you would fill to conceal the screw for an aesthetically cleaner look and allow for painting

[@docjonesy1968]

You could use a forstner bit to perform your countersink for a flat screw head. You just need to make sure to select an appropriate size bit that fits the screw head to your liking.

[@NewbieTuwbie]

Couldn't you just screw the first screw deeper to get the same results if not better? I honestly don't understand the purpose of the countersink.

[@MrFatboyRuns]

Issue with doing that is you risk splitting the wood. I have used the method you described several times and got away with it, but there has been a few times when I bodged it. Much better to use the countersink to guarantee the results.

[@mountainman8775]

Countersink for neat work, and as previous commenter said so as not to damage the materials.

[@jaybushwacker7695]

Some people should not make demonstration videos you are that person

[@lindawilliams7519]

He did ok...remember not all you tubers are professionals...just regular ordinary people willing to pass a little something along to others. He did ok.

[@aar3682]

Well Sir, you could clarify his mistakes.

[@fugginbazza]

Should really justify that comment rather than just making it. If he's doing something incorrectly why not point it out and help?

[@emsonwebster6413]

Dzięki.
