I had a deep bowl I was making and none of my existing end mills would work. The bonus is that I actually searched the fusion 360 spetool BD and simulated the toolpaths before purchasing. So, I was confident they would meet the need and they did.
I got this bit to level a badly warped cherry slab. It worked great, did both sides. This piece will go into a live edge table.
I have a large floor drill press as well as a couple smaller bench models, but sometimes it is easier to take the tool to the work rather than the other way around. I have had very good results with SpeTool products in the past so I thought I would try this portable drill guide out from them. This thing is a beast and is well designed and engineered. Very heavy duty and rugged. They did not cheapen out on the materials on this and I am very impressed with the quality of the chuck. Slides up and down on bearings and is super smooth and allows you to get a dead perfect hole. Made of thick durable cast/machined aluminum and steel, this is going to last forever. I love how adjustable this is getting perfectly angled holes as well is way easier than on the bench or floor drill press and this is just so portable and easy to carry around I think my drill press machines are going to get cobwebs on them.
This is a fantastic addition to my Spetool router sled. It cuts evenly and quickly without tearing. The quality is the best I have experienced and the replacement cutting blades are a definite plus.
This bit, W04036 is used a lot in my workshop. I do many small projects and find this bit great for many different lettering fonts. Also, produces great detail on the images on my work pieces.
Oak, Padauk, Sapele, Walnut, Mahogany and Eucalyptus are my major wood species, and I have had no problems using the W04036 SpeTool bit. The only one I broke was when it fell of my worktable and hit the concrete floor. I keep 3 on hand just in case one ever breaks.
