Makita D-17186 Arbour

Sharp and efficient for holes intended - there were approx 60 holes approx half inch deep. Laboured after about 50 but job completed. Was fit for our purpose. Not as sharp at end of project! but tool super and it performed for its purpose. Would purchase another if required.

I contemplated buying a cheaper alternative but this and its matching holes saws are just what i needed.

I need to make this clear right off the bat because I couldn't find the right info.1. This DOES come with a drill bit attachment for centering the hole2. This has a hex shaft that is larger than your typical 10mm cordless drillSo, with that in mind, I've knocked a star off, but once I had found a socket that fitted it, then found a socket holder, then found an attachment to hold the socket holder in my drill, I was all set! lol Yes, this thing was ludicrously long and flexible by the time I'd got it mounted in my drill. But, if you drill pilot holes first where you need them, it's really not a big deal. Just be sure that either your drill can accept it directly, or you have sufficient adapters/sockets lying around.

Not much to say, it does it’s job perfectly well. Remember to check your chuck size, this won’t fit the smaller drill ones, needs a 13mm opening.

Fit my holesaw perfectly, didn't fit my drill however.

Exactly what I needed.

Used with hole saw, done the job and not too expensive

Carried out my tasks
