Hi,
Has anyone had any experience with the Freud Precision Shear Forstner bits?
I'm guessing these are a new and improved bit over the regular Freud Diablos. They are made in Austria. The improvement seems to be serrated edges plus some other changes to the bit geometry. A 16 bit set going from 1/4" up to 2 1/8" diameter seems to run about $225. The regular Diablos are around $170 for the same set. Lee Valley's answer is over $300.
The Precision Shear bits were not around when FWW did their Forstner showdown some years ago so I was hoping there might be some user experience here.
Thanks
