Yes - all probably from the same factory. Never found them much use
as a tool anyway. A good hand file is quicker. Or a cone cutter if
you want various size holes with one tool.


The ones I got from Toolstation are quite handy, opening up keyholes
to one side for example.


Perhaps it's just me but I find hand held rotary rasps etc more
trouble than they're worth - they go all over the place. Again I'd
use a coarse file for this.


Agreed if there were enough space for one. In the example about keyholes, I
often find the key won't 'quite' fit because the lock is of a different
make. A few mins with a rotary drill/rasp gives enough clearance. I find
the aperture too small for a hand held file.

Can't think of any other application mind.
