Adjustable Circle Hole Cutters

                      Adjustable Circle Hole Hand Tool





From DMSeeleysTools.com If you ever need to put a hole or drill a circle in metal wood or other
materials you can obtain a couple neat hand tools that will work well for
most of your at home projects. The more common is a drill style hand tool, which
is an adjustable circle hole cutter and will cut a nice circle in light
metals, plastic or wood. Metal as long as it has a carbide cutter and metal drill. I used mine to cut a hole in a exterior wood door covered in light metal. I suppose as a fire retard. You must drill light metal with a high RPM drill.

There are look a like hand tools and bits out there but most will not cut light metals
like this adjustable circle hole bit will. This hand tool will take the place of a number of drill bits
and take up less room in that at home hand tools box. It has a capacity from 7/8"
to 5" diameter and both the drill and carbide are replaceable. Some money
savings compared to having to buy a new circle hole tool when they get dull. Handy to
have since you never know what size hole you might be drilling around the
home or workshop.

Even more interesting at DMSeeleysTools.com is the larger adjustable sheet metal hand
tools hole cutter used by some airplane mechanics as well as for at home sheet
metal projects. This adjustable circle hole drill will cut from 2" to 12" holes in up to 20-gauge
sheet metal. It can also be used with any high-speed electric hand drill. The bit
in this tool wears in the amount of thickness being cut so adjusting it up or
down exposes new blade for more cuts increasing the life of the circle hole drill bit being
used and again saving a few bucks in the long run when needing to replace
tooling..
This hand tool has a sliding hole with a pivot pin in it so you can make
adjustments for the size of holes you are cutting. It also has a handy scale
on the bottom in inches and metric to help with your size adjustments. Two
tools doing the work of many different size bits is the advantage these tools
have over others. They are DMSeeleysTools.com examples of another unique and useful adjustable circle hole drill.
