I thank you for doing these tests Project Farm, you don't only talk about tools or even upload click bait titles/videos, you actually do real legit tests and help people decide what brands to buy based on their budget. We all thank you PF and we all are proud to have you apart of the tool community.
This means a lot to me! Thank you!!
Well said and agreed
@mancaver you are a great channel also very few people on UA-cam like you great honest content you can trust!!
MCT, you the man!
Agreed
The Champion set is expensive but having the bits magically go back in the case themselves may be worth it.
lol. Absolutely right!!
They will never get lost that way.
I thought that was pretty cool! Lol
Does champion make a case for 10mm sockets? That would be a money maker right there.
TOTALLY AGREE on the Champion Brand
Instead of motor oil brand shootouts, it would be interesting to test the different oils from the same brand to see differences. For instance, Mobil 1 has “advanced fuel economy”, “high mileage”, “extended performance”, etc.
Thank you for the video idea!
I second this!
Wow. 🤯 That's an EXCELLENT idea. Genius. I watch every PF video and it never occured to me to focus on a specific brand's products. Happy to see PF loved this comment.
Selfishly, Ryobi bits would be my top interest.
Or PF could choose "top performers" from each existing video if the brand sells horizontally marketed products.
I like that idea.
This is a great idea!!!!
As a heavy diesel tech I need different tools I never knew I needed, I've watched your content as much as I can when I need a real option when I decide to purchase. You're the first guy I think of when I need help deciding. Thank you for all the great things you do, you're a real one for keeping it a 100 percent honest. Us blue collar workers thank you.
Thanks and you are welcome!
So true I'm a DIY homeowner and use this channel before I buy stuff. I now use the wipers from the wiper video and never been happier!
I'm not in the tech game anymore, I left for another career but when I was I always had a die grinder with a burr in it. Made installing bushes etc so much quicker, cleaned up lips on drums and discs, cleaning out rust from spring centre bolt holes, so many uses
Hear hear. I'm a plant E/I and this is where I begin my search
Check out Rescue Bit. They are an Amazon and other places. I've been in HD repair for close to 50 years. I have never seen ANYTHING that cuts like these. They will cut thru the screw extractor and or drill bit you have broken off in the busted exhaust manifold stud/bolt your trying to get out. I run it with a Cornwell die grinder. They run dry. READ the directions. First time I used one it saved me from from removing a cylinder head to get a broken exhaust manifold bolt out.
Has anyone else found themselves standing in a store watching one of these video's before buying anything? I ended up with two people watching over my shoulder before the video was finished. I waked out with what I wanted, and the other two guys bought the same thing even though it wasn't what they came for. Please keep up the amazing work, there is nothing I trust more than your videos when it comes to finding quality tools at a good price.
Thanks, will do!
Have I!😂
Turning down sponsors; that's why this is one of the best channels on UA-cam - you stay unbiased.
Thank YOU for your work :)
Glad you like them!
Just want to say thank you for never selling out, always doing realistic real world testing, and being overall very fun to watch! Video idea here, cheap vs quality pry bar sets. Tip bending, deflection, snapping point, ability to withstand striking, and chemical and drop test durability would be neat to see for really world use and application. Much love man, you’re awesome!
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for the video idea.
@@anumpirzada3312 I just checked and they suck
@@anumpirzada3312 I have enough worthless Chinese garbage around my house, no thanks.
Each of your videos that I watched, sound more scientific than most of doctorate degree papers. Abstract, introduction, methodology, trial group, control group, outcome measures, analysis, results presentation, suggestions.. Everything is organized in a such brilliant way. I love watching your videos, with a great respect.
Thanks!
How does it feel to be a man who has EARNED respect from MILLIONS of people? You my you tube friend deserve all the gratitude you receive from all of us!!! Great job as usual - I have told you i follow your recommendations almost as closely as i do my Bible!!!
Thank you very much! The respect is greatly appreciated and I'll work as hard as possible to maintain the best testing possible and without any influence from manufacturers. Thanks again!!
Your religion is like your genitals. Don't show it or talk about it to strangers. Especially when children could be around.
Well said!
We viewers appreciate the thank you but you’re the one who deserves thanks. I recommend your videos to anyone who buys tools, not just because you deserve the subs, but also because I know that anyone who watches these videos will instantly become a far more informed consumer. The importance of having informed consumers can’t be overstated, especially in a country like ours that is built upon capitalism. If the consumer isn’t informed, companies have no monetary incentive to improve their products. The more informed the consumer is, the better products we will get. Better products means less time and money wasted in our jobs and hobbies, which I appreciate to no end. Before project farm, tools would break on me, or they wouldn’t perform well, even if I bought the most expensive one. Now that I’ve found this channel, everything I’ve bought from Todd’s testing has lasted, done the job effectively, and many times, those products aren’t the most expensive ones in the showdown. My tools last longer, work better, and are often cheaper, it’s not hard to imagine how much money that saves altogether. For myself and plenty of others working in the trades, your videos make our lives easier, and give us more money to take home to our families at the end of the day which is something that I can’t begin to thank you enough for.
Thank you!
This was a nice message. I agree
Couldn't agree more
My brother's and I, (50 , 48 , 42 years old ) love to work with our hands , thus project farm is all our go to on tool choices.
I have binge-watched this channel and I am truly appreciative of the work you put in to legitimize testing and make it fair and impartial.
Thanks so much!
My personal opinion is that long term wear is more important than saving a few seconds. These tests put a lot more stress on the tools than I do. A lighter touch keeps tools in excellent shape.
Thanks for the feedback.!
and w these metal cutting burrs, it seems that its almost more productive at removing material with LESS pressure applied from user.... like you cant just turn em on n set them on the metal to bore out, as it will get all choppy n bounce up n around. but juuust enough pressure to ensure the tool won't go bouncing outta ur hands is all that seems to be needed, i feel like too much pressure causes it to dig in too deep the be avle to carve and eject the metal shavings out fast enough to keep up w its rotation.. but lighter touch lets it just glide across the metal and itll sink into it before you realize its even happening!!!
I use these a lot to cut out steel, sometimes to make 16-50 mm holes in 1 1/2" steel, when you do that you cannot have 'a lighter touch' or you will be there all week.
It sucks but jobs that call for the die grinder are not ideal, thats where your first options wouldn't fit.
@@elliotkane4443 what's your line of work? There are better tools to do what you've described than a carbide Burr. Oxyfuel, plasma cutter, magdrill. Unless you're just dressing a hole to size, that sounds like a lot of work.
@@himynameisjeff Boilermaker/Ironworker on this 1, We're not allowed to use oxy/plasma and I use my die grinder where the mag drill won't fit.
I could weld on a plate for the mag drill but it's just not an efficient use of time.
I love how you're able to think up real-world use tests that show just how good these tools are. You, my friend, are a genius! Project Farm is one of the most influential (and important) channels on UA-cam.
Thank you very much!
Doesn’t apply to me as a carpenter but damn I love watching your videos and they’re always the highlight of my Sunday
Thank you very much!
I work in a office and have two left hands.
But still love these video's ;)
Carbide burrs can rip through wood. But you're probably better off using a cheap rotary rasp. Although the rasp finish is rougher than the finish a burr leaves. The rotary rasp is like a rasp and the burr is like a file. You're probably going to have to finish with sandpaper anyways. A straight conical rotary rasp can be just the thing for weird wood shaping. I've never found a use for any of the other profiles.
Heavy cut Aluminum burrs will chew through wood at a pretty quick pace...
I'm a millwork installer/finishing carpenter and the die grinder is a tool that I never knew I needed to get me out of some pickles.
I'm 42 and quite the jack of all trades. But watching this channel makes me realize how stupid I really am, because you sir are a think tank kind of mastermind. I'm in awe of how much knowledge you possess and thank you so much for not only being so thorough and helpful to all of us seeking further education, but keeping it real and not getting bought out like a lot of these other channels. Cheers!
Thanks and you are welcome! Don't underestimate yourself! Being a jack of all trades is a commendable talent!
@@ProjectFarm You are too kind sir. My sincere appreciation again.
This channel is critical for “know before you buy”. Thank You so much for your patience and hard work!
I appreciate that!
I've used these in the past and didn't have very good results. After watching your outstanding testing video, I think I'm going to have to buy a new set. LOL Thanks for all the time and money you put into making these videos! A++
Which set did you have fail?
Thank you very much!!
@@paulcopeland9035 If I had to guess it was a no name brand from a general store
@@Jako1987 Combined with incorrect use.
@@Jako1987 to be honest I bought a set of cheap no brands from amazon. They were like €30 for 10 I think?
Used rm a couple of times on your average construction steel using my milwaukee M12 die grinder, they work quite a charm!
Did anyone else replayed the part around 5:30 where the bit flew back into the box to see if they hadn't lost their mind?
lol. I had some fun with that one!
I think it’s so awesome that you do these tests! Ive been watch your videos for some time now and wanted to say thanks. It’s helped me out as it has others. I’ve always wanted to do this kind of testing to find out myself and would love to be there right with you doing these experiments. I looks fun but I know you have so much time and work into these let alone the video editing so thank you for your time and keeping the content to the point, unbiased, and helpful to pros and homeowners.
Thanks and you are welcome!
I have a lot of respect for channels that test products like this. This is great, you basically just gave me a free ticket to skip years of experience buying and trying different burrs to compare. Thanks so much, keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
A great video project farm
Having experience in burrs helps and you hit the nail on the head for these tests. I am in market for a set and I will look at the made in USA sets again before making a purchase
Nice to see so many USA made products!
Yes, thank you!
The difference sure showed in these tests.
I used to know a machine shop that made carbide tools. Man they were into their ways bellows. Carbide and abrasive grit can tear machine tools up.
@@appalachiangunman9589 I think it's just the fact that US manufacrurers has had experience with making alloys, so they know what they are doing.
It isn't really just China, Japanese burrs are pretty shit too, US really is the best for tools, the quality is unmatched.
@@razi_man they just suck at making cars
When I'm looking to buy a new tool or piece of equipment, I always come here to see if it's been reviewed. I can't thank you enough for all your effort and unbiased testing. You are the Consumer Reports of tools and equipment.
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
I agree! I buy based off of your videos for what I need! We all thank you so much!
Me too
Love the breakdowns and the thoroughness. Been on a binge of your channel's content recently. Started with products I use, and then started watching everything. Great stuff, thanks for making these. Great data provides me with better decision making. Thank you!
Thanks and you are welcome!
I am always impressed by the attention to detail you apply to your tests! You take into account ALL the variables that could affect the results. Bravo!
Thanks!
always giving unbiased testing. love what you do.
Thank you very much!
I trust project farm more than the manufacturing company
Thank you very much!
Of course. The manufacturers have huge incentive to exaggerate and lie.
I am so glad to have seen your channel grow over the years! I love watching the reviews of the products you sample!
Thanks! Thanks for watching!
For the bolt cutting and Allen Wrench cutting tests, it looks like the deciding factor is how fast the bit can heat the metal up to the point that it loses temper and becomes soft enough to chew through.
I only have one bit, the oval shaped one. I can grind into metal till they are smoking red and then put my finger on the bit; it is still room temperature. Titanium Carbide is such an unbelievable material.
Its basically abrasive spot annealing. Its definitely not the same as properly cutting, but he also isn't using an industrial mill....
Despite what one manufacturer may say, these are great for DIY dentistry. I have successfully ground down all my teeth and no longer have to deal with the inconvenience of brushing or the excruciating pain of accidentally biting my tongue.
I bit my tongue a couple of times. Hurts. Sounds like a great idea.
Lol, Thank you!
I’ve bit my tongue and my cheek before. Might have to pick up a set of these…
What I love about your testing is how you test products, like tools, under normal use conditions, then you stress test them. Seeing the breaking point of products is crucial, especially when making a determination if a more expensive product is worth it. I look out for your videos every week and you never disappoint, keep up the great work.
Thanks, will do!
No way, the way he's testing these tools is flawed, that's not real life testing. A real proper test, would be using a solid carbide Burr on a solid carbide Endmill. As a machinist I've seen demonstration where you use a solid carbide endmill to mill a slot length wise on an other carbide Endmill and the endmill that did the slot shows no damages on the flutes. The way he's doing his test is abusing these tools to get faulty results. That's why it's a faulty or bias methodology. If I were to do that same style of test, that Project Farm did, to find the best tooling for my job, I would be out of a job.
Listen I've used cheap set of Burr's even in a high speed CNC Mill setting and the tool held fine on hard to machine Inconel.
@@lepompier132 Man he tested the burrs in a way ideologically consistent with how regular people would use them in their own home-gamer shops. People aren't in their personal shops cutting carbide usually, nor are they cutting any formulation of Inconel, and they particularly don't normally have a $60k CNC machine to throw into the mix. Of course you would be fired if you did a tooling test like this, they pay you more than was spent on all the tools combined for this test.
@@MedicSound Sorry I don't agree with you, the average person won't abuse de-Burring tool in that fashion. In order to get the same pressure on the tool for an average user in the garage, he would have to put his full weight on it, when in reality he doesn't have a steady hand to force the tools in the metal, let alone something that's hard like a grade A bolt. With common sens, someone in hos garage will use the 4 inch grinder first and once the grinder has done it's job they will use a die grinder with a Burr tool to clean and prep the zone and from experience I've seen the use of Burr tools after the 4 inch grinder to finish cleaning removing the rest of the weld. Or prep the zone to weld with bass. And like I said in my original comment, I've used Burr tools Carbide and High Speed Steel version and I don't destroy them, in fact I have a cheap set and that set gave me the best results. That's why I say his test is flawed because it doesn't reflect reality of use. And since in his video he used Carbide version. When you know how they make carbide tools, you tend to respect them and they have a longer life.
This is by far my favourite UA-cam channel, your no nonsense testing always give me piece of mind before buying tools and equipment.
Many thanks for your efforts, and well done. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks and you are welcome!
I’ve ported a lot of heads and intakes along with cleaning up castings in valve bodies and transmission cases etc. I’ve ALWAYS learned you get what you pay for with burr bits. Great review as always.
Thanks!
I love the fact that you don't take any sponsorship's, and you do what I would call "real world testing" on the products you review. Some of you test rigs are absolutely amazing! You have helped me (and I am sure many others) to pick the right product for the right price on many occasions. Thanks for all of the hard work you do, Sir! o7
This means a lot to me! So thank you very much!
I wouldn't necessarily call this one "real world testing".... This particular test, while interesting, is missing an important factor. A die grinder..... Some rotary burr designs perform better at higher RPMs, some perform far worse....
Dish Soap! I would love to see your testing of the best dish soap for washing by hand. I think everyone would appreciate your thorough testing!
Thanks for the video idea.
It's people like you that make this global commercialism a hell of alot easier to navigate. Between people getting paid to say good things about tools, companies spending money on making fake reviews to make them appear better and people online never able to come to an agreement on anything ever. So again thank you for the tests and the neutral stand on the products you test. it really helps make a truly informed decision. Cheers!
My pleasure!
Single cut takes a bigger bite, but not as smooth running as a double cut. Some years back I ran a tool room in a machine shop. Spent many hours cleaning up freshly milled parts. The TiN coating can be useful, but only if it is done over a really good hard well machined base metal. You'll notice that cheap soft drill bits that have a TiN coating don't do anything for you, but a carbide drill bit with TiN coating will perform great and last a long time in the shop. Love your real world reviews! Thank you! You have helped me many times to buy good replacement tools!
I would have thought the single direction cut on the cle-line would have made it perform poorly, but I think they're onto something there. Very interesting. Great test as always.
We use them on aluminum. Extremely aggressive and can chew through a terrifying amount of aluminum in a few seconds. Doesn’t gal quite as quick, either
@@justinmartin8887 oh man, you ain't lying. With their performance on steel I bet they chew right through aluminum like it's not even there.
@@justinmartin8887 I already thought that this tool would be great for aluminium, thanks for confirming.
I guess that design is stronger and has fewer "holes" in the pattern. I'm also guessing it's less expensive to make as well.
Thanks!
I have to say, I really love (among many other things about this channel) how you show the tooth wear. You don't just say what you think or give a rating, you show it to us under a microscope while you talk about it! Even tho it may be a little bit subjective, you provide the information readily for someone else to make their own subjective rating on it as well, and it's just so seamlessly fit into the video!
Thanks!
Another great unbiased review, thanks! I bought a set of Jestuous long shank a few months back for porting an intake manifold, haven't used them yet but glad I bought them.
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
you were genius for doing this channel !! Looks like it's panning out for you with the experience you'll learning and the money coming in AND you really do provide a good service for your viewers :)
Thanks!
I just bought the Kodiak set 3 months ago and I've been very happy with them although I primarily use them on mild steel and cast iron. At the time they were the only American made carbide burrs I could find, these are not easy tools to look up even on the interwebs. Thanks again for another great video!
LET'S GO 🏁
I have the Astro Pneumatic 1/4" burr set and the 1/8" Yufutol set...honestly I can't complain they're both really good
Great feedback on the Astro Pneumatic brand!
I needed some cutting burrs, I bought through your link, thanks for what you do!! Great video as always.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Impressed by the placement of tool cases directly behind the drill press. Great visual.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Just remember, sometimes you are carving up aluminum and do not want to eat the material off very quickly....so knowing which set of burrs doesn't cut fast is also helpful.
Great point!
tool speed comes into play here as well. The bite can be viscous.
speed & pressure.. like drilling steel or stainless..
Seeing which ones gum up the least on aluminum would also be useful.
@@F0XD1E as you probably know a slower speed helps.
THANK YOU so much!! I literally have three sets of these in my Amazon cart right now and was trying to figure out which is best. You posted this video right in time helping me yet again in my purchasing power!! Words cannot express how thankful I am for you and your Channel!!
What did you get?
@@MattTrevett, bought 1 from champion and 1 from kodiak.
Thanks so much!
That's so awesome dude. In this world of questionable quality and value these videos help everyone and you are a perfect example of that
@@DC_DC_DC_DC, I've bought a bunch of tools based on his reviews and none have failed me! One of the most useful channels on UA-cam bar none!
Perfect timing for this to come up in my feed. I need some of these. Thanks for your help!
You are welcome!
another great test. Yet another keeper in the list to refer back to. These videos really help me in the shop to make the best bang-for-buck purchases for tooling. Keep 'em coming!
Thanks, will do! Glad they are a help!
One of very few tests that I've seen where the more expensive brands have the edge over competitors.
Kind of strange to see it when it comes to burr bits though. You'd think price-to-performance would show up in more substantial tooling but here we are.
Thanks for sharing.
Yeah, a lot of times the less expensive tool is just as good, I think the difference here is metallurgy - the specific alloys and precise heat treatment. It's what makes the difference in high-end knives for instance.
@@oldbridgemaker2094
I agree totally. The cheap burrs could likely benefit from better heat treating but they just aren't made from as good a steel. That would be an interesting thing to test though. Send off some cheap burrs for a proper heat treat. Might even find some other tools it's beneficial on. Maybe cheap impact sockets, files and whatnot.
@@1985cjjeeper There's no heat treatment with tungsten carbide. It's just grain size, binder/concrete, cutting geometry and coating.
Was gonna say, i didnt even know what a burr (tool) was before this, though i can see the possible applications now
Perfect! I also use these a lot, so looking forward to this! Thanks again and keep up the EXCELLENT work!
Thank you very much!
Your test setups for this is so damn entertaining! The Allen key test really turned into a heat survival test! it's neat how the allen key changes color as soon as it reaches a certain temp @ 10:00
Thanks!
I can not express how much i appreciate the stuff you do. You always have a video for something i looking to get.
Thanks so much!
You never fail to conduct well-thought-out tests, great reviews and unbiased results. Thanks again for a great video PF.
Thank you!
This is a review I didn't know I wanted, but definitely needed
Thank you very much!
Project farm is the first and best address for tests and finding the best. Thanks from Ahrtal in Germany
You're the best, I love watching side by side product reviews with tests. Reminds me of that show "street cents" I used to watch as a kid
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for staying true to yourself. Thank you for not uploading clickbait titles or falsifying information. Thank you for making every test as Fair as possible within reason but keeping it consumer-friendly and idiot approved LOL! Pretty much anyone can watch your videos and know which product is going to do the best for them! Love it and keep up the good work
They may also gain some knowledge of what a tool can do and be used for. You learn something every day
Thanks so much!
I love this channel! FInally a PROPER test channel. So much time goes into making these videos. THANK YOU GOOD SIR FOR DOING THE LEGWORK. All of us benefit from your hard work. Thank you again for sorting out the bad from the.good.
You dear sir make our world a better place to live in.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Thanks! Your testing rig setups are always good, as in simple & repeatable & straight forward, quantifiable and objective. I wouldn't ask for more.
Thanks!
Your reviewed are always very thorough and unbiased. I check out your videos any time I'm going to buy some tools. You rock!
Thanks so much!
You never cease to amaze me with the contraptions you come up with to test these tools or equipment. Just seeing your contraptions you use are just as entertaining as seeing how well the tools perform? I definitely trust your testing and opinions over anyone else anywhere and I often buy items off the results you shown in your testing videos! Your appreciated probably more then you’ll ever know by everyone watching your testing! In the long run your saving people a lot of money and frustration showing which tools are better and which ones aren’t worth buying in the first place! Thanks for everything you do!
Thanks so much! That really means a lot to me!
This was a useful test and review for me as a metal fabricator. Thank you for your effort and time to provide this data. I was hoping my favorite brand of burrs would have been tested, which is Pferd brand. I've been very satisfied with all Pferd tools and accessories.
Thank you!
Thanks for your recommendation. The other brands are currently sold out!
Usual good job, Todd. You sure make the comparisons interesting and you strive to make them as fair as possible for practical purposes.
Thanks!
awesome content! Thanks for doing these kind of tests. As a custom fab / restoration tech, I have often wondered about the different quality and durability of the different brands of consumables I buy. These findings are fairly consistent with my experience over the past 25 years.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Todd, I watch every video you put out very intently, although I'll probably only need less that 10% of what you review...that is how enjoyable your reviews are. But I will admit...as much as I pay attention, that magic bit at 5:31 made me jump a bit! You never fail to entertain as well as educate.
Thanks so much!
I look forward to Sunday with P.F.
Thanks for the dedication you give to each project. ✌️
This guy has helped me make several educated tool choices and when people ask me about my selection I always refer them to this channel. For instance I bought into the Milwaukee M18 line for my battery powered tools because of the impact driver and multitool videos
Glad I was able to help! Thanks for sharing.
Again, a most thorough bit of testing. I can't thank you enough, Project Farm. You are an American jewel that shines brightly.
Thank you for the positive feedback!
I've only ever use mini versions of these that fit in a Dremel type rotary tool. Cool to see what quality bigger versions will do. I was rooting for the Kodiak as I bought an 1/8th inch carbide end mill from them years ago as a better router bit for my Dremel and it performed really well.
Thank you!
So depending on what material you are working on you can get the rotozip bit that are normally for cutting thru drywall and other stuff and use them in the dremel and they work pretty well as long as its not metal. They also have some tile cutting bits and grout removing bits that are basically carbide burrs anyway and those work great for pretty much anything you need, Just have to make sure its the right size it get the dremek collet chuck attachment. but they work great and can sometimes be cheaper than the dremel bits or other alternatives
dremels have the R.P.M. to make good use of some of these bits probably need them a little smaller though. i have use these in a pneumatic die grinder for cutting through spot welds in ford strut towers to be able to adjust camber and caster in a wheel alignment...
I have been using American-made Atrax 1/8" shank carbide bits, purchased over 35 years ago when I was a car stereo installer, in my Dremel tool. They're slightly chipped and beat up after years of use and abuse but they still work! The company was founded by ex Pratt and Whitney tool and die makers, and they still make their products in the USA today. My bits weren't cheap when I bought them, and they're quite expensive nowadays, but I have gotten more than my money's worth out of them. I would love to see Project Farm do a review of various 1/8" shank bits for Dremel tools and other similar miniature rotary die grinders.
@@connorjohnson4402, I did try the Dremel brand ceramic tile cutting bits (diamond) when I needed to trim away some tile from around an electrical box when we redid our kitchen, but they didn't work well at all for me.
As a note, I was using these type burrs in the Dental Lab back in the 70s, and lots of them my Dad had (he owned the lab) were already pretty old. I still have a bunch of those. Super useful. Also I have a bunch of quite smaller ones designed to be used in small handpeices,like the Foredom motor setups I have
Man I love your channel and every test you do! It's so informative with so little youtuber/influencer plugs!
Thanks and you are welcome!
Love the videos man! Thank you for testing burrs out! Very useful information when picking out a good burr set for our shop!
Thanks and you are welcome!
The company that made the "champion" really did mean it. Usually when you see a brand with a "strong name" like champion, best, ultra. You end up with something that is not great.
*I'm looking at you Master Lock*
Thanks for the feedback.
Love your videos!! Just introduced your channel to my grandfather lol much love from Kentucky!
Awesome! Thank you!
Nice work. I don't use burrs often enough to go for the top shelf, but also tend to pass up 'too good to be true' lest they leave me dry when I'm in a bind. Videos like this give folk like me the no nonsense to make good decisions. Thanks for your work.
Thanks and you are welcome!
Thanks for doing the testing for us. I’m picking up a set of kodiak‘s this week sometime and thanks to your video I’ll have confidence spending my money.
You are welcome!
You do a really good job with your projects, tests and measurements. I have learned so much from you and I know that everyone who watches appreciates all the work you put into your videos! Keep up the good content!
Thanks, will do!
Big thank you for excellent product testing and reviews.
As well as holding manufacturers to their claims.
Love the channel!
Thanks and you are welcome!
I don't plan on using any of these any time soon but this information being out there is a great service. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
What a great review and such an eye opener. I'm sold on Grobert due to speed of cut and longevity with my application. Thanks again for sterling work!
Thanks and you are welcome!
I use mini-versions of those burrs on a dremel for creating jewelry with wood, metal and epoxy. I prefer cheap sets because i can use unused fresh burrs more often and get better results. Great video! 👍 sry 4 my english
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
Your English is good!
A lot of the Dremel accessories are not carbide. They're just steel. Good carbide burrs would hold up pretty good using them with wood.
I rely on your testing and processes to help me spend what limited resources I have to get tools I need for tasks that come up. With resources being tight after COVID it has been even more necessary. thank you for all the good you do!
Thank you for the feedback!
Thank You for another unbiased review. I've been thinking about getting a set of these, this really helps
You are welcome!
I have used Cle-line products for years, have had good success over the years.
Great review
Thanks! Thanks for sharing.
Was a sales rep for cle-line (among other brands) back in the day. Surprised that the quality is still there, because they were sold to a Chinese company. They still make a lot of products in the USA.
Thank you!
Same with ShopVac
Great review, and timely too. I'm finally ready to replace my Snap-on set purchased approx. 40 years ago. I always ran them at the proper speed and pressure which is why they lasted so long. Thank you Project Farm!
Glad I could help!
I've got the 4 piece snap on set myself. 20 years so far, and haven't had one that needed replaced yet. Either from wearing out, or "walking away"
It would be interesting to know what company made those Snap-on cutters 40 years ago. I have a bunch of older Snap-on and the quality is exceptional.
I really do appreciate the time/effort/cost/thinking that you devote your time to when creating these videos!
Thanks!
I just have to say, this channel is awesome! I did not even know that I needed burrs, but now I know which one to buy. Awesome!
As a hobby welder, this is incredibly helpful.
Thanks.
Thanks!
Thank You again for your testing. So many of the tools, oils and other items in my shed are there simply because I was able to see tests that proved their durability and usefulness.
Carbide burrs certainly are useful in ones shop. I used to blend ports for performance engines and found my choices for superior burrs. While I no longer offer that service, I still use burrs to fit parts better and might do porting and polishing for my own engines.
Simply put: Another excellent choice for a subject and excellent testing!
Thanks and you are welcome!
I never realized there was such a wide variety of choices in these things. Thanks for testing and reporting! Thumbs up!
Thanks and you are welcome!
Excellent test and I love how well condensed the information is!
Thanks and you are welcome!
This channel provides my #1 source of informed decision making for new tool purchases.
As a new homeowner, I would love to see a review on crescent wrenches, as this is something I am finding myself often needing to find alternatives to not having.

Thank you for such great and consistent content! Every week this is one of the highlights of my weekend. You've sorta become the Myhtbusters of tools, cant wait for more content. My only suggestion is that you maybe do more revisits of previous videos with additional tool options, or when new tools are released by some manufacturers. Thanks!
Thank you for the feedback!
You are relentless with these comparisons, keep it up PF 👌👌
Thanks, will do!
Outstanding test as always ! I love your shows ! I uses burs for a living. Porting heads. We use HTC and SGS not to be bias. Fastest way to kill any brand bur is speed ! folks turn them way way to fast ! I have burs with hundred of hours on them and still going strong ! Take it slow ! slow it down ! that's what she said hehe
Dude, you are just so damn good at this! I'm so glad to see you grow in popularity!!
Your content could not be improved in any way.
Thanks and you are welcome!
I just love these tests! I’m actually considering getting a set of these. I do love a good set of tools. Thanks for all you do and keep up the amazing work.
Thanks and you are welcome!
I understand this is a test but you’re essentially trying to mill with a burr bit. This is a light finishing tool! Git you some endmills if you need heavy cuts!

Your testing are very true and fair and to set it all up takes a lot of time and work I bet many company get real nervous when they see you testing their product.
Thanks!
Very useful tests on things I need to be tested and well thought out methodologies, many thanks an best wishes for the future.
Thanks and you are welcome!
