Only way to get a straight hole started in pre-made, closed end butt caps. Otherwise, handy way to get a big head start on reaming shorter sections of cork handles.
I build a decent amount of rods and custom grips so reaming out grips by hand is not really an option. These will get your grips to the approximate size to then finish reaming my hand. It makes the process much faster and I recommend getting the entire set. Start small and work up to the desired size needed.
I purchased both the 3/8" and 7/16" Flexcoat Pilot Drill Bits, and unfortunately, both wobble excessively when used in my drill press, making them very difficult to control. I originally thought using them with my drill press would be safer, but that's not the case. Additionally, the 3/8" bit I received is missing the ball groove, which means I can't even use it for quick changes, despite the product photos clearly showing the groove in all sizes.
Very happy with this tool it preformed excellently
