Thanks for the great video stumpy
^ typo alert - “get” more
In case nobody has said it yet: yes please, do make a video on the different uses of hole saws, spade, and forstner bits.
I just discovered you and your channel. You are excellent and very precise on your descriptions.
Love what you do.
Do you have a video in sharpening any of your metal tools?
Thank you sir for your time.
@@kevincranford148 If you go to my main channel page and scroll down, you will find a playlist full of sharpening videos. ua-cam.com/channels/stwpLSByklww1YojZN-KiQ.html
No woodwork channel I've seen to date can compress as much practical value into ~5 minutes with such articulate commentary yet still be so enjoyable to watch. Please keep this format!
You put it well. Following this guy.
Agreed. The skill and experience in both woodworking and video making to achieve this is astounding.
I wish to every interested versatile craftman to receive at least partly the amount of cool/cewl tools tightly described in a hard to deny manner by stumpy nubs, if not in life, maybe in heaven. Which craftman doesn't dream of having a hall or hangar assorted (to be asserted?) with everything wanted to realize an own minded concept, instead of having to use tool sets hardly gotten spared as if the craftman is supposed to chant with remnants. Not really wanting to mention all the tool and similar stuff not or hardly available anymore (if the devils cave shall remain unscathed). So where would we get the money from not being able to be devotive "tool monks" as beings with two legs with a still pumping heart?
Always very good information. But an additional reason I love this channel is that you don't waste my time with a stupid themed lead-in, and your calm and peaceful narration is just icing on the fantastic cake!
Keep doing what you do!
That's exactly what I like about him! You don't have to put on a long, sensational show to be sensational -- on the contrary.
You can pre-drill a pilot hole with a 1/16” or 1/8” twist bit, then run the Forstner bit in halfway from each side. No tear-out. Perfect matches every time.
Nice idea. I see the small 1/8 bit makes a hole perfect for the point on the Forster to line up 👍👌🏻
I arrived at the same principle when i had to use hole saws for material too thick for the capacity of the hole saw. It really works well!
I have been using this method for years. Never fails me.
Good idea, I will probably add that with handhold drilling it is quite important to pre-drill the hole perfectly right-angle - or the top and bottom main holes will not match.
Good tip.
I'm a little embarrassed at how much this gentleman has taught me after 15 years of carpentry. Granted, I spent 11 of them as a military reservist. This guy is a go to for a lot. Keep it goin Stump
Never too old to learn new things!
This channel is fast becoming my absolute favourite little corner of the internet. More great tips!
I agree !
Forstner bits also work great for coring cabbages when making sour heads or sauerkraut!
But I can't figure how to hold the head of cabage steady under the drill press. 😁😁
Remind me never to eat at your house. . Sauerkraut a-la motor oil.
You're like the woodworking equivalent to Technology Connections and I love it. Both of you are clearly passionate, relaxed, and just seem happy to be sharing what you love. Even your backgrounds remind me of each other.
I also watch both, good stuff
Awesome tips, I hadn't thought of using tape like that and I really liked the last one re: stepping the bit size up from the other side of the board, thanks!
Would this not risk blowout on the backside on the second pass?
@@Night56Owl Was just thinking about that, and have a solution in mind:
1. Start the original hole with the larger bit, go just ~1 mm deep or so.
2. Switch to the smaller bit and go almost through, just the tip.
3. Use the larger bit to finish the hole from the opposite direction - this hole will then meet the starter hole from step 1.
You need to be careful in step 2, though. If the center thingies of the bits are not equal size, auto-centering the smaller bit may not be as accurate as you'd think.
@@veikkoimmonen7300 Another way to do it would be to use the smaller bit until the tip protrudes, then cover the entry hole with tape. Drill through from the other side until the tip pokes a hole in the tape. Finish from the tape side.
Another tip: Drill with a small bit (2 mm), and then can drill with the foster bit on each side, so you dont have to use the foster bit to the bottom until it appears to the other side (that us dificult to do, normally oneself pass all the wood to the other side), but with the small hole, you can easily stop drilling one half and flip it and drill from the other face of the piece of wood.
Or us the 2mm bit to punch through after you've drilled part way with the FORSTNER bit. You have the indent right there in the center of the whole. Good video! My first one. Pure information. No muss no fuss.

I recently had a project that required seventeen 2" holes drilled in 3/4 plywood. After blowing out the first few holes, I did the following: Drilled a small pilot hole, 2" forstner just over halfway through, Flip the work over and drill a 3/4" hole from the center on the backside, Use a flush cut router bit from the backside. This kept my bit and drills cooler as rotating between tools gave them time. The backsides never blew out, and I had nice clean holes on both sides.
Your the one who sold me on Fisch bits. I waited for a sale and bought a whole set. They are the best bits I have ever used. If anyone is on the fence, just get them and make smooth holes already.
I am not a pro but to me I would keep my fingers away from that drill bit. You give great safety tips all the time.
I agree fingers only an inch away, try that with a 3” bit and small piece of ply.
Ply spins fingers get grabbed by bit, messy.
Holdown clamp on drill press as you would use for drilling sheet metal.
James you're amazing with all I continue to learn from you. Thank you!
Fisch forstner bits are excellent.
Right after I first saw a video about them on this channel, I purchased one to try them out.
It's been years now, and there's never been any tear-out at all with the wave-cutters I bought.
Thanks again James for the recommendation - and I definitely agree, everyone should try Fisch.
And like James, I still use spade bits, but only for drilling in used wood (that may contain nails or when I drill holes through the ceiling).
Note: They have different types of forstner bits; apart from the cutter type, they have different shank and tip types as well.
I greatly appreciate that you always seem to make a video just before I start a new project that answers the problems I run into.
I love the tips on re-boring with larger bits. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.
thanks! re-boring was a pain for me, live and learn
I learn something new every time I watch your tutorials. Thanks again and again.
I watch EVERY one of your videos! Always learning something new. Your delivery style is excellent.
Your tips are never dull.
Excellent! I bought a set without knowing about the different types, glad I happened upon one with waves.
Condensed and valuable information with perfect illustrating pictures and calm voice in modest narration - thank you so much!
That overlap guide tip for the hand drill will surely save a lot of souls, including mine. Thanks for the simple yet brilliant solution!
Agree with everything you said James. I do a lot of drilling with Forstners and I like the toothed one as I can easily sharpen it.
The most clever tips are usually the most simple. Thanks!
Thank you! I just bought a set of forsners bits and cannot wait to try them out.
Keep it coming. Your tips are great!
I especially like the one of using a smaller Forstner predrilled hole, and then finishing with the bigger bit.
Legend! James, yet again I come away with at least 3 new tricks or tips from your channel. I watch for notifications eagerly every day waiting for your next posting! I cannot thank you enough for these - they are changing my skills and ability dramatically. I especially love Cool Tools and these tips/tutorials. Brilliant work! Thank you!
Many useful tips, explained clearly and concisely, although sometimes quietly. Thanks much, James.
Great tips! The tips for drilling larger holes, especially the tape trick, were genius!
Every video you make I learn something new and find out I’ve been doing something properly.
This video is super useful, especially the tips in the last half covering how to enlarge holes and also the tips about using them in a hand drill. Thanks so much!
Using the scrap piece as a guide is brilliant. I will defiantly use that
Thanks for the tips. Now I’ll be using my Forstner bits more intelligently. I appreciate the succinct style of presentation without distracting background music.
I mostly just make boxes and drill holes in them (I make custom arcade controllers from wood, mostly for personal use) and I love all the tips I've learned from not just this video, but your channel as a whole. I really love your videos!
Terrific tips. I particularly like the one using tape to position a larger bit over a smaller hole.
Thank you for including the chart! Will definitely make use of that.
I find your cometary informative as a finishing carpenter with forty plus years of experience I appreciate your clear consistency of explaining many different applications having trained a number of apprentices I find it good to use your videos as reference
Did not know there was this much to learn and know about forester bits. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. Your forstner bit sharpening video a while back was great too! Brought my old hand-me-down bits back to life
Just got a set for my birthday. Thanks for the tips, James!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much. Many things I didn’t know! Love it.
I love that stepping up tip by flipping the board!
Great guidelines, Stumpy, now I have a better idea of what sizes, brands, and practices to focus on for my assessment of what to get next and how to use. Thank you.
Thank you for your humble and always interesting videos. I really like your effective and timely suggestions!
Love your work. Thank you for another incredible lesson.
Perfect timing! I’ve been working on a project that needs several large-ish holes and having some troubles hand drilling with my Forstners (don’t have a drill press). This gives me a couple ideas to try (including possibly ordering a wavy bit). As always, thanks for the tips!
“You can make a hole video about when to use one or the other”
Bravo! 😂🎉
Great tip about using a spare hole as a jig to get the oversize started. Top man
great tips - especially the boring a larger hole over an existing.
Another great video! When I use forstner bits, torque vs heat is a recurring issue for me, so thanks to your advice I'm now also a fan of the WAVY forstner bits. 😍
James, another AWESOME video! Thanks! A tip I learned about Forstner bits that you didn't mention is starting the hole with the Forstner bit in REVERSE. If you start in reverse you don't get the tearout that the sawtooth Forstner bits can create. Start it in reverse, cut through those initial fibers, then drop it into forward mode and finish the hole. Saves having to use a scrap piece...
Your content is awesome and appreciated, another happy subscriber!
Great video. Your material is always presented so logically and clearly.
Excellent video on forstner bits. Thank you.
Very timely, Mr. The Nubs! I just inherited a box of forstner bits. Thank you, kindly.
I really enjoy these short videos! I always learn from them. Professional information that helps us !!
These videos never disappoint…thank you
Thanks a lot for all the tips, James! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Those tape tips are solid gold!
I always come to this channel for the LD on things. Reliable source.
Thank you James, sound advice as always and it was a revelation when I bought a set of Fisch bits. So much better than my DIY set 🌞
Thank you... great tips for an absolute beginner...
The point-through-the-blue-tape method on the drill press will work magic! No more lost material!!! 👍🎯
I appreciate the sharing of your knowledge and experience along with the physics of getting things done. This provides me with a logical way to remember the tips and tricks you share so I can get it right all the time.
You have in my mind the best UA-cam woodworking channel. Such good info.
Great vid. It will help me to stop powering through and burning bits in anger which is what I seem to do every time when I get the forstener bits out. I am a little impatient and so this reminds me to use the bits properly!
I never thought to use tape to locate larger bit. Nice tip.
Thanks, some welcome advise for Forstner bits.
I use forstner bits a lot, and I never knew this. This is why I subscribed.
So many useful tips, thanks!
I love your informative videos I use everything I've learnt in last few years of watching your videos keep them coming
Great content. This answered several questions I had, as well as a few I didn't know I should have.
Thank you. Some very helpful tips.. Much appreciated.
Excellent tips. Well done and thank you!
I literally needed to hear this yesterday. I forgot I had a few forstner bits in the shop and had a job where I could use them
Always great tips. Thanks.
Wow, that tape trick for over-boring or even counterboring a hole at the drill press is genius~! Wish I'd know about this one (or figured it out myself) years ago~! Thanks for sharing this one, Stumpy~!!
Hadn’t seen this one even though I subscribe. You always provide at least a tip or two I haven’t heard before. Thanks!
More great tips, James. Thanks.
Another awesome tip from the Master Thanks 👍🏻
Thanks, you are the best to go to for very useful advice. I guess that is what an expert is. Thank you Expert!
I always learn so much watching your pod casts
I always learn something when I watch your videos!
I bought the small set of fisch fostner bits and my god are they amazing! Worth buying especially for the most commonly used sizes
Always solid information from your channel, thanks!
tape trick is outstanding, that's such a common issue, great idea
...as Austrian I have easy access to Fisch drilling stuff and I can recommend the bits as well. Great video and tips as usual, thank you James!
Mr Nubs. Thank you for the drill speed chart. I’ll make sure to place near my drill press. And thank you for the tips
Love the info and love the format. Keep it coming!!!!
Such a great video. Most definitely grateful
This kind of useful advice reminds me of advice from old timer carpenters, the ones who could rip an 8’ sheet straight as an arrow with just a hand saw. Useful and practical, well thought out.
i was supposed to drill holes on my new amateur's made workbench for bench dogs .. but then i got lazy and openend youtube and this came into my recommendations and now i drilled holes .. thanks for the boost ...
Thanks James, printed out the drill speed chart. Lots of great information as always. Fred 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻✋🏻✋🏻
Love this channel. Here's one which I did while using a forstner recently: Cutting 5/8 through ply and the layers of each ply (cheap HD crap) kept getting stuck in the bit. Raising the bit and the ply still wouldn't come clean. Rather than stopping the press, cleaning it out, and restarting, I just raised the bit, and blew it out with compressed air while it was running. It was powerful enough to eliminate it, plus it cleaned the rest of the workpiece so I could finish the hole.
Some very handy tips many thanks for sharing.
Really great tips. Thanks!
Very informative video SN! Never knew about those wave rim forstner bits before now. Thanks! 👍👍
Fabulous video. 100 points. Thanks.
Excellent young man, very knowledgeable.
