Review: Professional quality - Im an electrician. This is a great bit for a plug in drill or a milwaukee hole hawg with a large forge battery. Takes alot of torque but its up to the challenge. Get about 3 months of medium daily use.
Review: Takes a powerful drill - First, what I'm going to say is not a problem with the drill bit. It is a wonderful tool, very fast, very effective in what it is designed for- straight deep holes in wood. Use a powerful1/2" plug-in drill. A 1/2" battery drill won't come close. My drill motor weighs about 12lbs and has two long handles to make it a tee. I used a speed controller to slow it down to about 80%. The drill can't pull the bit any slower. It bound up and banged the 18" handle against the joists. Not the bits problem. You get a big bit you need to prepare for it. Here's what I did to make it easier to use. The reason it works so well is the lead screw on the tip. It pulls the bit into the wood at a fast rate if you run the bit fast. Just reduce the pull of the screw by drilling a pilot hole in the wood. I used a bit about 1/2 the size of the screw tip. It can't bite as much wood so it won't pull as hard. It still went fast but a lot safer in tight spaces.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Sweedish fire logs
*by A***Y on January 9, 2025*

I had tried a few different auger bits and the common problem was that they couldn't drill into the end grain of an oak log. This bit does it almost too well. I believe the reason it works so well is because the starter threads at the tip are longer than other bits I tried and they pull the bit right into the wood. I also like the 2 notches on either side of the cutting edge. I believe these prevent the bit from digging in to hard on either side and binding up which can be dangerous with a bit this size. Over all if you had a hard time finding a reliable auger bit that can cut end grain on hardwood, then your search is over.
