Would RecommendI was only working with soft wood, but this bit put several 4" holed in the ends of my 2' x 4 "s quickly and very cleanly. Highly recommend for wood boring.

Not impressed
Would Not RecommendI purchased a 3 piece set of speedbore max bits recently , needing to bore 3/4 in. holes through 1 1/2 in clear pine for dowels. Using bit in my drill press, after about 12 holes the bit would no longer cut and get lodged into the hole. The bit looks as if I was drilling metal. Scored and burred from the cutting tips all the way up the flutes. Nothing but garbage. Price was right, but you get what you pay for
