### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ decent center drills

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great
*by A***A on 8 January 2025*

These work fantastic, I've done stainless steel, mild and many soft metals, These cut them all like butter. I'm seeing a lot of reviews about brittleness? I think the people who break this tool are feeding it into the material way too quickly, these cut fast and deep, take too big of a cut/ fast of a feed speed and they're gonna catch on too big of a piece of material and snap. But that's how good these are, they cut every thing super easily. You have to feed it into the material at a somewhat slow pace, doesn't have to be snail pace, just don't JAM them in there and magically expect a hole.
