when it comes to drilling into wood there are a lot of options these are some of the most common twist boots Brad point boots Spade bits turbo Olga boots for snow boots hole saws pocket hole boots multi-angle boots and countersink bits twist bits are probably the most common and Varion sizes from one millimetre up to around a 13 mol they can be used in steel and wood so they are very handy but they do have a tendency to wonder and leave a rough entry hole in wood a bonus however due to the tapered tip is that they are one of the only bits that can neatly make holes in timber larger Brad point boots are specifically made for wood and make perfect centered and clean cut holes in timber thanks to the center tip and sharp Spurs these bits also vary in size typically up to around 13 moles next are the Spade words these bits are great for making larger holes at around 40 mils and come in extra length like this 400 more long but they have a centering point and allow you to drill holes in thicker timber but because of the shape they do leave a rough finish and are not always that accurate this makes them great for rough working construction but not so good for fine woodworking another good but for drilling fast and more accurate holes is the turbo or giveth the screw point ensures the boot is driven in the correct direction while the four Spurs and orga design make easy work of drilling through the timber the different plus with this bit is the ability to draw a straight hole at an angle the stroll really powers through the timber like butter but does require a more powerful drawl to drive it through especially with the larger bits which range up to around a 30 mol these four snippets are great for drilling large accurate and most importantly neat holes and because of the design they leave a flat base in a hole again these butts do require more powerful drill but the fine finish is definitely noticeable these bits range in sizes up to around a 50 millimeter this next option is perfect for cutting very large holes those holes wall goes up to 120 seven millimeters and cuts a fairly neat hole as long as you use the centering order or a drill press the downside to this house was is the limited thickness because of the design this particular set can only cut timber up to 25 more thick finally we have some specialized bits like this pocket hole but that is used in conjunction with the jig to drill pocket holes these multi-angle bits that as the name suggests can cut multiple directions and these countersink bits the pilots grubitz drill a pilot hole and countersink all in one while these will just countersink an existing hole so next time you need to make a hole in timber you’ll have a better idea of the options available now these are just some of the drilling options available at builders for more info on these and more visit the builders websites or check out the builders fan youtube channel …
