Adjusting the Precision Twist slot cutters is easy. First, loosen the top nut on the bit with the included wrench. Second, turn the knurled knob on the top of the bit to adjust the spacing between the pair of cutters. The bits are etched with one-eighth increment hash marks around their circumference to help dial in the desired cutting width.

Gloves, loose clothing, and long hair can get wrapped up in the drill bit as it spins, risking serious injury. Avoid wearing anything with hanging parts and keep long hair securely tied back.

These router bits include a bearing that limits the depth of cut to 1/2". With a 1/2" shank and an overall diameter of 2" we recommend a maximum speed of 16,000 rpm using a variable-speed router or router speed controller. While these bits can be used in a hand-held router they're ideally suited for use in a router table or CNC machine. Each of these bits feature four carbide cutting tips of the same high quality and long life you would expect from Infinity Cutting Tools.

It’s not unusual for your drill bit to shift when you first start drilling. This could cause the hole to be strangely angled or in the wrong place, so it’s a good idea to create a ‘dimple’ in the metal first.

Metal is a key component in countless construction projects. Aluminium and steel are the most prevalent, but copper, brass, and bronze are also commonly used.

Mark the intended hole location with a pen, then use a centre punch and hammer to create a small dip in the metal. This will help keep the tip of your drill bit in place as you start to drill.

The Infinity Tools Precision Twist slot-cutting router bit is a new spin on a traditional slot cutter. What makes these bits so different is that they’re infinitely adjustable from 1/8″ to 1/4″ (Item 61-512) with the twist of the adjusting nut on the top of the bit. With the ability to fine-tune your cut in .004” increments, you’ll always have the perfect size slot cutter for the job and never have to mess with those pesky, easy-to-loose shims on traditional, stacked slot-cutting router bits.

Each hash mark represents 0.004" of adjustment. One full revolution of the knob adjusts the overall cutter width 1/64". Tighten the lock nut back down and you are ready to put the bit to use.

Drilling into metal can cause tiny shards to fly off at high speeds. If one lodges itself in your eye, you’ll soon find yourself on an unpleasant trip to A&E. Make sure you’re wearing appropriate eye protection before you start drilling; safety glasses that wrap around the sides of your face are the best option.

Trying to drill into a piece of metal without securing it is a recipe for disaster. If the drill bit catches, it could cause the metal to spin around violently, slashing at anything and anyone in the vicinity.

This is handy for any other situations that come up in custom woodworking, such as creating an absolutely perfect-fitting groove for undersized plywood.

When using a metal piece in your project, you may need to drill into it at some point. Metal’s harder composition makes getting a clean, precise hole more difficult than drilling through wood or masonry, so there are a few things you need to consider before you get started.

Safety always comes first. As with any construction project, it’s important to take steps to protect yourself from injury.

The final step is to neaten and smooth any rough edges within the hole. You can use a specialist deburring tool for this, or you can use a drill bit that is slightly larger in diameter than the hole you just drilled. Twist it by hand over the top of the hole to grind away any burrs left over.
