How to Drill with a Holesaw without Burn Marks

[@MariusHornberger]

A few people commented under my last videos that the image quality was not as good as usual. I think I found the issue. My lens (UV-filter as lens cover) had a thin layer of dust on it that I just didn't notice...well easy fix

[@anthonvanderneut]

Maybe you can try and drill a hole that slightly overlaps with the lens circumference, so the dust has a chance to escape, instead accumulate on the lens.

Möglicherweise liegts auch an der Datenreduzierung die alle Streamingdienste momentan durchführen um den Traffic ein bisschen einzuschränken. Cooler Tipp 👍

[@lcerbaro]

@@anthonvanderneut HAHAHHAHAHAHA

[@alfredneumann4692]

Don't use a UV-lens. They are good only for the dealer, which sells them. Use simple Glas-lenses. They are cheap. I'm an old amateur-photographer :-)

[@acanadianwoodworker]

I find your contrast in color correct has become very flat, which in turn gives an impression of haze. Of course we're all artists and this is all personal preference as to how you like your image.

[@Mark-EFMB-Combat-Medic]

Until now, I never considered my hole saws as anything other than a rough tool, mostly used for plumbing access and other non visible work. After watching your excellent video, I feel comfortable using some of my larger hole saws in woodworking projects that actually have to look nice. Thank you for taking time to create and share this great instructional video.

[@ChuckBronson100]

Hey Marius, I want to thank you for the great tip, I’m a lifetime wood worker and never thought of this Great job and keep the videos coming. Wally Bronson from Sterling Heights Michigan

[@billbyrd9845]

I'm 74y/o and never thought of that. And I might have missed your video. Thank you!

[@angelaslaney1514]

Excellent analysis and solution for a problem.

[@dn5503]

Another tip: You can drill about 2/3 of the way through, turn the piece over and finish drilling from the other side. That will leave the piece that's within the saw protruding beyond the teeth. You can grab it and pull it easily out of the saw.

[@thoughtlesskills]

I also do this when I am not drilling against a sacrificial board so there is no tear-out on the back side of the hole.

[@BrucesWorldofStuff]

Wow! Great Tip! I'm 66 and never thought of that all these years.... Thanks! LLAP

[@TomTrys]

There are a lot of tips and tricks on KZbin, this is one of the best I've seen!

[@MrPatdeeee]

You are a VERY gifted genius. Your ideas are like few could come up with. It is a pleasure to view your exclusive videos. If one can not learn from you, they can NOT learn period. May Jesus continue to bless you with gifts that you share with others.

[@CCCfeinman55]

Great solution, Marius!! You can also drill relief holes on the outside when the plug is what you need. I’ve been raising and lowering the tool dozens of times per hole for years. Frustrated, I’ve taken to avoiding this method altogether. I’ve used another type of hole-cutting tool, but must use a lot of clamping to make it safe. Your solution eliminate in one step, all of my issues with hole saws. Thank you! Why didn’t I come up with a solution years ago? It simply never occurred to me to look at it as a problem to solve. So, I searched for alternatives.... I always look forward to your well thought out videos and ideas.

[@jaakkokorkeala]

Thanks Marius for your tips with the problem I'm also familiar with. I have bought like you cheap and expensive holesaws, but it looks to be the same with all. One good advice I have to tell all of you is to carefully sharpen the holesaw with a file before using it. It helps not to burn the wood and the saw so easily. All the best.

[@ConorMakes]

This I'd say is the woodworking tip of the year so far. Brilliant and brilliant again, thanks for sharing

[@kenpederson7047]

I don't know anyone who knows that tip of yours. Thank you so much and will pass along and use myself. Great job Marius!

[@fergalwalsh3890]

I can’t believe how anyone gave this a thumbs down, this is super great advice, thank you so much for posting this!

[@BlueLineCNC]

Good job Marius! I’ve been woodworking for years and never thought of this. Just proves you can teach an old dog new tricks. My days of multiple passes with an air line to clean out cut are over.

[@CDN_Torsten]

Thanks this is really an excellent solution! BTW - To help with the removal of the wood from the inside of the hole-saw, I adjust the set of the teeth especially towards the inside. This makes the cut-out piece a bit smaller than the inside walls of the hole-saw.

[@thijsvandort9974]

Excellent tip! Thank you very much! Drilling about 80% percent from one side, and the rest from the other side also helps with tear out and makes removing the plug easier because you have something to grab on to.

[@matthiaskrause7306]

Es ist einfach sehr schön zu sehen das jemand so einen Trick unter die Leute bringt , ich selbst durfte ihn vor 10 ca Jahren von meinem Meister in der Ausbildung zum Schreiner lernen. Ich arbeite heute noch in diesem Beruf und verwende diesen Trick fast jede Woche ein paar mal 👍🤗

[@weldabar]

This technique seems completely obvious after-the-fact. How many lifelong handy-people, woodworkers, etc have been doing it wrong their entire lives? Me +1

[@andersjjensen]

Isn't it like that with most really good solutions? Completely obvious.. once you've been told! :P

[@JamesPotts]

I was watching, "Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah--wait, what? How did I not realize that?!"

[@craiga6557]

I always stopped every ten seconds and cleared the chip with my fingers but this makes way more sense

[@deweybewey]

More time consuming, boss won’t like that.

[@eegaugh]

Top tip! I have used the technique for producing a plug for some years but it never occurred to me to reverse the idea. Thank you.

[@MrCrankyface]

I use this method quite a lot, in steel as well. Works absolutely fantastic each time.

[@TwoScoopsOfTubert]

This is a great trick for regular hole saws. I've been able to find some that have few carbide teeth and lots of space in between - these work tremendously well if you can get your hands on them!

[@MariusHornberger]

Yes, I've seen them somewhere. They get rid of the sawdust issue

[@papaskreaktiv-werkstatt]

Das ist wirklich ein genialer Trick - ich habe es bisher so gehandhabt, wie erklärt, in Etappen zu bohren. Ich experimentiere auch mit den Geschwindigkeiten mit meiner Standbohrmaschine. Aber das Anbohren mit einem Forstnerbohrer muss ich mal ausprobieren. Danke Marius für diesen Tipp.

[@JohnSmith-ud9ex]

So young and so wise.... You never cease to impress Marius. Be safe, be well. MfG.

[@johnfisher4910]

Marius, you're a genius. Thanks so much for sharing this tip. This will be especially hand for speaker box builds.

[@tim6196]

Such a simple solution, but I would've never thought of that. Thanks!

[@kramerdesign9443]

This is a great idea! I’m going to try this on steel tomorrow and see if the principal carries over usefully

[@WouterVanHoven]

So simple, yet so clever. Amazing how much you can learn on KZbin. Thanks for your amazing work.

[@roncooper6302]

Always the simplest work arounds are the best. You are brilliant.

[@BKMakes]

Great tip, I like how the big Forstner relief hole also aids in pulling the plug out

[@casikamodern3596]

I had learned this trick from reading a Reader’s Tips and Tricks column in one of the woodworking or home building magazines quite awhile ago and have not used a hole saw otherwise. Just two days ago, I had to drill out 16 3.75” diameter holes into 8 laminated worksurfaces at 1 3/16” thick. I did exactly what Marius did to establish the rim cut, then used a 1/2” brad point drill bit and drilled about 8 through holes around the perimeter. Not only do the smaller holes relieve dust built up, but the hole saw goes through that much faster as there is much less material to saw though. I was using my cordless drill so making less work on the large hole saw was fully necessary

[@M00NM0NEY]

I've always done this with a drill bit. Thanks for the great tip Marius! Cheers from Maui 🏝🤙

[@mururoa7024]

Excellent tip. One of those things that make you wonder why you didn't think of it yourself.

[@tfildaed]

Great job figuring out and explaining the issue and solution. You continue to amaze me, I hope your higher studies are including engineering, you would be a great one!

[@OlivierGomis]

Awesome tip ! Thank you Marius !

[@tonybaleno2138]

Excellent idea on using hole saws. Thanks for the tip!

[@markanne54]

I always get massive tear out so I tend to go half-way deep from both sides if I can. But good tip on the relief holes.

[@TimPiggott]

I think I might be overusing the word Genius in my comments, but this really is! Absolutely brilliant!

[@vikassm]

Very helpful! I just resort to using concrete cutting TCT hole saws since they last ages plus the teeth stick out a little bit so there's space for the sawdust to escape.

[@hrxy1]

Brilliant analysis, excellent explanation, great command of english, squish!!!, but a very severe haircut. Gteat vid ty

[@roodvleven3239]

Good tip thanks. The cut will be even better when you drill from both sides, no tear out/splinters

[@leighhardy9926]

Thanks.... I will try this the next time I am using a hole saw. (I like to learn.... and is why I watch your channel)

[@FritsvanDoorn]

Best tip I have ever seen on this subject. You are becomming a true Meister!

[@metalzonemt-2]

When I had to drill two big holes next to each others so that they overlapped a little bit, I noticed that the second one was easier to drill, but I never thought of making extra holes. As for the round piece, I drove a screw thorugh it so it wouldn't stuck to the holesaw.

[@davetarrant6888]

Thanks Marius that’s a great tip that I would have never thought of.

[@pauln134]

Hey, thanks, this is an excellent idea. I have burned and destroyed many hole saws in the past. On my drill press it only takes a couple seconds to change the bit. I can change the bit and drill a couple relief holes faster than blowing it out every couple mm. Thanks, I will definitely use this tip.

[@Kojo2047]

I'm making a wine-glass rack right now and I just drilled 28 holes by hand. This would have come in handy yesterday! Oh well! I'll remember this for next time, thanks Marius!

[@stuboyd1194]

If you're using a drill press, you don't need to have a pilot bit in the hole saw. If you want a tidy finish on both sides of the wood, only drill about half way through. Then flip it over and drill from the other side.

[@Psychlist1972]

Good tips. I have a couple of carbide-tipped hole saws. They make more of a kerf, and so tend to burn a lot less. They're quite a bit more expensive, though.

[@PhilipStubbs]

Great demonstration of the problem and the fix. I just hope I remember this next time I use a hole saw.

[@TrudgeRC]

Wish I thought of this 4 hole-saw sets ago ;-)

[@pieterbevernage6659]

Thanks for the really useful tip.So simple and never thought about.

[@alfredneumann4692]

Yes, great tip. But i remember, my dad had a holesaw, which had some big openings around. So the dust flows around the whole table. Was a big mess, but works very good. It's good to see, that others think about this problem. Super, Marius!

[@mbrenison9763]

Brilliant. Using it on my next speaker build. Thanks and keep making great videos.

[@MaltandMake]

Annoying the future me will definitely forget this tip, seems like a really great one!

[@ausnetting]

Nice idea! For clean hole edges, you can also cut from both sides. Also, if you back out right before completing the cut, you could probably get rid of all the dust between the plug and hole saw for easy plug removal?

[@kuehnel16]

Thank you for this tip . I have to drill a 6 1/2 and 71/2 inch holes. I believe this will really help. 😊

[@dovetails3633]

Very well thought out Marius, fantastic!!

[@garfstiglz3981]

Very good. I would never have thought about drilling an accumulation hole for the saw dust. 👍

[@toms4123]

Marius, That really was a great tip. I have to drill through20mm boat hull and/or plywood finding it difficult sometimes to gets clean unburnt hole. No longer thanks to your video.

[@JDLarge]

Thanks for putting this info out for all to see and learn. I have been using this trick since buying my first set of hole saws which I still have today. I bought a “Blue-Mol “ brand set of saws back in the 80’s and they weren’t cheap. All my electrician friends would be replacing their sets one size at a time, every other job they were on due to smoking them literally lol. I could smell wood burning two flights up when working in the same house lol Then they’d say “you still have that same set!?!?” Sure do and I have only had to touch up sharpen ONE because someone borrowed it here at home and didn’t have the patience to drill additional holes like I explained. Kids meh, whaddya gonna do ... pfffft! 😉

[@HyperactiveNeuron]

Wow great tips. Glad I saw this. I have a bunch of holesaw cuts to do. Big help. Thanks!

[@howder1951]

Great tip Marius, thanks!

[@kestekrafts1580]

That was brilliant, smoothly explained and very educational, definitely going to use this technique in the future thanks a lot

[@andrewbrown8148]

Cool technique, Marius~! I'll definitely give it a try on my next go round with the hole saw. Thanks~!

[@timflanigan8586]

Thanks! Just goes to show how you can always learn something new!

[@jasonbissonnette2331]

Marius, I wonder if you could modify the hole saw and add some deeper gullets similar to some table saw blades? That could help with moving saw dust out of the kerf? Perfect experiment for you!

[@kiesel56]

Hallo Marius, das war einer der besten Hinweise. Danke.

[@dannyoktim9628]

Now that is smart!!! I started using a hammer drill with my large hole saws, it seems to grabs less and there's more control. Always impressed with your vids, never a waste of time.

[@leifengstrom4961]

Super easy solution to a common problem. Thanks!

[@oddjobbobb]

Great tip. I have been frustrated by this many times!

[@KSFWG]

Great tips for hole saws !! Thanks for the video !!

[@furionese]

Goddam... Mind blown!!! It looks so simple yet I never thought of that! Thank you!!!

[@Rich32262]

Helped some. I was drilling through 1 1/2" of plywood with about 12 layers of wood. I was getting burning from the wood sticking to the outside of the blade. Could be the glue heating up. Could just be these aren't made to cut that deep although the capacity is there. Thanks for the tip.

[@KlussenMetHenk]

Cool Tip! Thnx for sharing Marius

[@adrianwilliams763]

This is a great tip that I’ve used for many years, but nice instructional video.

[@DTSVK]

Again, very original content. However, in 3:05 I think bottom is the best place for hole, because dust is not acumulating in hole, but gets out thru it.

[@plunder1956]

A very useful tip. The slot in the side of your good red hole saw is for popping out the plug.

[@henningm.schulze4357]

The slot allows for expansion of the 'cup' when it gets hot, and obviously helps to get the disc out, too.

[@DonsWoodies]

Great tip, and something I never considered. Thank you for pointing this out.

[@peterskidmore8222]

A brilliant tip that I'll remember just after I've forgotten it.

[@Crewsy]

Peter Skidmore Me two. 😉 But setting fence posts isn’t rocket surgery. Ohh wait. This wasn’t about setting fence posts. 😳

[@rudolfpeters367]

Hallo Marius, toller Tipp, den ich hoffentlich nie mehr vergesse. Rudi

[@JohnHughes2002]

Ha ha nice video. At first, I couldn't tell whether you were saying puck, pluck or plug!

[@sgsax]

This is a fantastic tip! I will definitely use this one. Thanks for sharing!

[@jrlejeune]

Thanks for the tips Marius!

[@MoreHace]

Nice tip man! Have u try to change the set of the hole saw teeth? Once, my saw dealer offer to me that.

[@airingcupboard]

Excellent tips. Thanks Marius.

[@felixfromnebraska8648]

Thank you for the great tips here. I have had this issue before. Thanks again for sharing. Felix

[@tianwang]

perfect for what i am doing, i just used a hole saw bit for the first time two days ago and it burned badly, and to a point my ryobi drill can't even turn it. i wish i found this video earlier!

[@Mrcaffinebean]

That is a neat and a common issue. however my Milwaukee hole saw set has fixed this all of these issues because the kerf is bigger that the rest of the saw which gives the chips a place to go.

[@woodbe5311]

I dril with high presure air near the holesaw . Results well, though, dust everywere :) this method seem´s more eficient but it still warms a lot the holesaw. thanks 4 sharing this method. :)

[@AdelAfsharipour]

Awesome, thank you, exactly what I was looking for. Right to the point, loved it.
