Nice and sharp. Worked perfectly with a jig and hand drill.
I do not own a drill press and was not looking forward to creating 500+ plugs with clamp, drill, unclamp to cut 1 plug. I created a jig with some scrap oak flooring and was able to use a hand drill to create 300 in an hour. Drilled a 5/8" hole for 3/8" cutter. Cutter held up perfectly for he first 300 after that I noticed it was tearing the wood or smoking while cutting. I used my lawn mower blade sharpener a few strokes along each tooth and it was cutting like new again. Once I got the hang of moving the jig around I was making the best use of the board.

These performed well and produced tight fitting plugs. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because if you go a little too far down when cutting them, there is a tendency for the plug to break off. You can easily avoid this by setting the stop on your drill press.
I bought these for the primary reason that they were a set of plug cutters made in the US. The set I purchased covered the sizes I needed and came well packed and in good shape. I have used these quite a few times now over the past several months on very hard material (bone) for making perfectly round inlays. They cut well and get the job done. I use them in a drill press at the recommended RPMs for the size of the plug and material and they do what I need. The slight taper that is cut during the process does make fit into corresponding holes easier. That slight chamfer really makes for a tight fit. Thanks for a quality product Make it Snappy!
I didn't break these and my fundamental complaints are 2. First the plugs were too short for my application and second they were too small in diameter. I used a Forstner bit to drill a hole in the end board for a breadboard end on cherry table to ensure the holes would be .5 but the plugs were slightly less and maybe glue would have expanded them. But holding them in the hole was questionable.
They did cut clean and I used a drill press. I cut over 40 of them without incident. The wood was cherry.
It was just as simple to make one long dowel on the router table and cut it to length.
I've been using the C-style plug cutters for years and that has been okay but they rarely cut a nicely smooth plug. I was looking for a better plug cutter for some more precise woodworking repairing guitars. These cutters a precision ground, quite sharp and cut very clean plugs in all the woods I've tried so far. I'm very happy with them.
