5.0 out of 5 stars Eureka! I CAN Drill Holes that are Centered!, July 6, 2000

This review is from: Vix-Bit 9VIXBIT Self Centering Pre-Drill Bit for 9/64-Inch Hinges and #8, #9, and #10 screws (Tools & Home Improvement)

I had been stubbornly using an awl or an eyeball to center my holes until I finally broke down and bought one of these. I had a couple of doors to hang so I figured about 20¢ per hole to get it right. The Vix sure makes it easy to do things right. Those doors actually LOOK like they were hung by a sober man.

It may sound silly, but a crooked or off-center screw just drives (no pun) me crazy! No more split wood either. I've been using these for about 8 years now. What an excellent product!

Vix-Bits are one of those things that once you use you wonder why you waited so long to get them. Great on-center holes each time. These genuine Vix-Bits appear to be better made than the Chinese or Taiwanese clones that some companies sell.
