Here's a decent rundown of the three main types of Forstner bits.

You must be retired to have enough time to waste watching youtube.
I'd much
rather read a text description.

A picture is worth a 1000 words, a video is worth 10,000 words.


The problem is that youtube video producers insist that they just
_have_ to get in all 10,000 words.* Borrring!

Yes, the video was about boring, but not all that "Borring"

There are virtually millions and millions of Youtube videos on all
subjects. Some have no words at all.* Some are excellent, some suck. If
you don't have enough common sense to apply some discretion to what you
choose to watch, that's your problem.

This particular one referenced is not bad, and has good info in it.* For
example, I learned Leon should buy a set of Wavy Fisch Forstner bits if
he doesn't already own a set or two. They are priced right for the
Fesstool market.




LOL I bought a large set 30+ years ago, a no name brand made in Austria.
I have used the 1-3/8" bit to cut countless hinge holes.

If you are bored watching youtube videos, then there is always Dr.
Phil,Judge Judy, Real Housewives, dancing with the stars or the fake
news on TV.
