Van muy bien, parecen resistentes y el primer tasteo ha sido positivo.
Est bien que tengas tantas medidas pero hecho de menos una mas grande y no tantos intermedios.
Cosa negativa: la caja es un toston! Deberian poner la opcin de enviarlo en una bolsita para los que tenemos poco espacio.
Most kits have 5 or 8 and this is 17 for about the price of one Bosch bit. Make sure you apply the 4 voucher!
It doesn’t say made in China anywhere on it and the box has a German address and German text on it, so it very well could be a quality product made in Germany. The hinrichs tools website looks legit at any rate.
I’ve tried them out and they make a lovely clean hole and are sharp. The central point sticks out nicely to get a good bite before it digs in on the sides. Obviously a pillar drill is best, but I’m sure you’d get okay results from a hand drill used carefully. Some of the reviews say the case was broken and as mine arrived from Amazon in a paper bag with no protection – that doesn’t surprise me (although mine wasn’t damaged).
You can see some photos of cuts I’ve made with the 18mm bit in some pretty hard plywood and some softwood.
An no he utilizado este juego de brocas Forstner, si otras Foster que tengo.
Al estar en su caja se hace muy prctico tenerlas a mano y ayudan a tener en orden el taller.
Me gusta.
Bon matriel de bricolage, solide, bien prsent et facile ranger grce son coffret bois, bien sur pour les pluristes qui recherchent le centime, il faudra dbourser beaucoup plus, avec ce matriel sur une perceuse fixe on est +/- 0.2.
Needed just one bit for a job I was doing enlarging machine head holes on a bass guitar. One wrong move and I’ve ruined a complete guitar neck. Equally one rubbish tool and it’s game over. I cut a hole in a scrap bit of wood at the size I needed to cover the existing hole. This was a guide. And I’ve got to say it worked great. The hole exit splintered a little but it was expected really. I was using these but with a battery hand drill and they worked great. The shafts are very long so some might struggle with bigger jobs. But overall they are great. I probably won’t use them again for a very long time.
What a lot for so little money. This is great in that it covers all my Forstner bit needs from 15mm up to 40mm, although I have bought a few other sizes these each cost me around the same as this entire kit. The wooden box isn’t great, I made a quick repair upon receipt and thankfully it’s holding up fine.
Was very pleased with this item and the delivery was on time thank you
bought this set to get a 23mm diameter drill bit – all good but the box is dreadful – wish I had bought a set in a roll up pouch
The box doesn’t keep the different parts in place while closed.
Haven’t used the bits very much at all yet but seem OK. Box they are in could be designed much better but can alter this to suit so major problem.
Better than expected. Good quality and work well. Good number of sizes. Very pleased.
Box sections don’t match up looking like I’m missing one but it’s just not had a grove cut inside for it very lose fitting parts haven’t used them yet so as for how long they last is anybodys guess. They look OK for the price
4 stars as Product well made from a functional perspective, great choice of diameters. The box on the other hand – shaft length stated as 80mm but the box only made for 75mm max so some of the bits don’t sit neatly within. To get 5 star, bits should have hex connections, also either improve QA to ensure the bits fit correctly or modify box slightly. But who uses the box anyway.
Good bits, but box is too small for the bits always loose and mixing up
Excellent choice for what I wanted and a good price.
When it arrived, all the bits had rattled loose in transit. The design of the case means they don’t really sit tight in the grooves and the size indicators are to the side of each bit, rather than parallel with them, which isn’t as intuitive as it could be.
I’m no expert but I’ve drilled three holes for actual use and they were clean and sharp, so I assume the bits themselves are decent for basic work like mine.
They can be difficult to use and do require a little bit of skill. They can go off center easily when using a hand drill. Use a template from a small piece of wood. I needed to drill large holes in some decking to fit some LED lighting.
I don’t know how much use these will get or how they will stand up to wear and tear but for a really good price I have a good selection of bits to cover most eventualities. I docked it one star because there was a mistake in the pack, I got two 18mm and no 19mm bit (or the other way around) but didn’t see the point in complaining, maybe that’s the size bit I will use most… and maybe its unfair to dock a star when I didn’t give them a chance to rectify the error.
Great forstner bits. I use them f9r hollowing candlesticks and goblets on my lathe.
