4 out of 5 stars A quick and accurate way to predrill hinges   May 29, 2003
Earl S. Handy (Kaneohe, HI USA)
This bit drills just the right hole for it's specific purpose. Only negative is that it tends to clog with wood shavings and stick. It greatly improves the speed and accuracy of predrilling hinges.


3 out of 5 stars How deep can this bit drill?   May 19, 2003

I bought a bit similar to this, but it could only drill about 3/8 of an inch deep. Is this bit able to drill to 3/4 of an inch of depth? If so - I'll buy it!


5 out of 5 stars These vix bits really do the trick!   October 11, 2000

I can't remember how many times I have struggled trying to get my pilot hole centered in the middle of a hinge or some other pre-drilled hole. These vix bits really do the trick, and they are made out of quality material as well. Plus, if the bit breaks, you can easily get a replacement bit at a reasonable cost.
