					<description><![CDATA[The Wave Cutter Forstner bits hand forged in Austria by family owned Fisch Cutting Tools are truly in a class of their own as a premium tool for woodworkers. Fisch's Wave Cutter Forstner bits feature a wavy rim that guides the bit with all the precision of a traditional Forstner, but with less friction and heat buildup. The razor sharp serrations slice through the grain for minimal splintering, while also breaking up the waste for better chip clearance. The result is a bit that cuts faster and lasts up to three times as long as a standard Forstner bit. Use them to drill angled holes, overlapping holes and flat-bottom holes that are precisely true-to-size. They also excel at drilling into end grain without deflecting.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Wave Cutter Forstner bits hand forged in Austria by family owned Fisch Cutting Tools are truly in a class of their own as a premium tool for woodworkers. Fisch&#8217;s Wave Cutter Forstner bits feature a wavy rim that guides the bit with all the precision of a traditional Forstner, but with less friction and heat buildup. The razor sharp serrations slice through the grain for minimal splintering, while also breaking up the waste for better chip clearance. The result is a bit that cuts faster and lasts up to three times as long as a standard Forstner bit. Use them to drill angled holes, overlapping holes and flat-bottom holes that are precisely true-to-size. They also excel at drilling into end grain without deflecting.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>When choosing a forstner bit there are generally three styles of cutting edges, smooth edge, saw tooth edge and wavy edge. There are many choices of lower cost forstner bits and all will cut flat bottom holes but there are differences in the cut when using different styles and qualities of bit. The smooth edge bits tend to heat up in the cut so the user is limited to only a couple holes at a time and shallow cuts. These bits tend to have the shortest lifespan. The saw tooth bits stay cooler cutting but because there are teeth all around the outside edge they can in certain drilling operations pull to one side or another causing less accurate hole drilling. The Wave design used by Fisch allows the bit to drill very clean accurate holes with very little heat buildup therefore increasing the life of the bits. There have been tests done drilling hundreds of holes in hardwoods with a single Fisch Wave bits to try to heat it up or dull it and it was still able to drill fresh precision holes in delicate materials.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This seven piece kit provides a selction of bits from 1/4&#8243; to 1&#8243;, perfect for small precision hole cutting. Woodworkers will love using these premium tools.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Included in kit are Drill Bit Diameters: 1/4&#8221;, 3/8&#8221;, 1/2&#8221; 5/8&#8221;, 3/4&#8221;, 7/8&#8221;, 1&#8221;</li>
<li>Hand Forged</li>
<li>Wavy rim cuts like a knife to guide the bit and keep it on track</li>
<li>Serrations help to break up waste for better chip clearance</li>
<li>Low-friction and less heat for longer life</li>
<li>Resharpen up to 30 times for excellent longevity</li>
<li>All bits are 90mm (3-1/2&#8221;) long</li>
</ul>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fisch wave cutter Forstner bits are forged and CNC machined for durability and precision. The patented wave cutter scalloped outside edge is a big improvement over standard Forstner bits. Its unique slicing effect helps to cut super smooth holes while reducing heat for long tool life. Combined with the center point, the wave cutter edge makes it significantly easier to drill smooth, true holes using a cordless or corded portable drill. It even helps reduce walking. Like all Forstner bits, Fisch wave cutter bits cut clean, flat-bottomed holes in hard and soft woods.</p>
<ul>
<li>Set includes 12, 15, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25, 26, 28, 30, 35, 38, 40, 45, 50mm sizes</li>
<li>All bits have an overall length of 90mm or 3-1/2\</li>
<li>Metric sizes are required for many hardware installations</li>
<li>3X holes of conventional Forstner bits before sharpening</li>
</ul>
