Always purchase this tool ...
Would RecommendI’m a cabinet maker and make all the doors myself, so I rely on this tool for the soft close hinges I use... Been using them for several years from Lowe’s...

Great bit
Would RecommendSo after using this to bore 15 holes i noticed that it wasn't cutting that well and then I realized I had cut through 15 nails. Given that I was cutting nails I think this is a great bit, when I replaced the one I wore out on nails it cuts fast clean holes.

Cabinet Door Hinge Installation
Would RecommendGreat tool for installing hinges on a new cabinet door. If you drill until the bit is flush with the wood, then you are at the perfect depth.
