### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Accurate drill
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 October 2023*

I needed to drill a very accurate hole in some marine ply to support a mechanical fixture and it was important that I got an accurate fit. Im so pleased that I paid 'top-dollar' for a quality part.The finished hole was spot on. The hole entrance was nice and cleanly cut too with no rips or splits. The drill stayed dead straight with no tendency to wander about. (I cut in from both sides using the pilot hole to guide the second side. The cut was a decent speed too.I used the A2 arbor for my 43mm drill.
