These are better.

Quite likely though that the diameter of the hole is greater than the
size of the largest cutter there.

Having arsed around with a spiral saw cutting such holes before, I don't
bother any more, unless it was say just one hole.. when I last needed to
do it and didn't have a right size hole saw in my cheapy multi-set, I
bought a separate arbor and hole saw of the right size. More expensive
yes, but not a great expense, (holesaw and arbor were less than a tenner
I think) but it just makes the job a piece of ****.

I got mine from the local B&Q Warehouse. alternatively, they were
selling a 'Downlighter installers kit' basically a set of holesaws and
an arbor, but for holes larger than the usual DIY set - going up to
something like 100mm or so.
