2. Drill bit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit

   The edge of the bit has a sharpened spur to cut the fibers of the wood, as in the brad point drill bit. A radial cutting edge planes the wood from the base of the hole. In this version, there is minimal or no spiral to remove chips from the hole. The bit must be periodically withdrawn to clear the chips. Some versions have two spurs.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimlet_(tool)

   A gimlet is a hand tool for drilling small holes, mainly in wood, without splitting. It was defined in Joseph Gwilt's Architecture (1859) as "a piece of steel of a semi-cylindrical form, hollow on one side, having a cross handle at one end and a worm or screw at the other".

4. Concealed hinge jig - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concealed_hinge_jig

   Forstner bits, named after their inventor, Benjamin Forstner, bore precise, flat-bottomed holes in wood, in any orientation with respect to the wood grain. They can cut on the edge of a block of wood, and can cut overlapping holes. Because of the flat bottom to the hole, they are useful for drilling through veneer already glued to add an inlay.

5. Drilling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling

   In some cases, as in holes for rough carpentry, the quality of the hole does not matter, and a number of bits for fast cutting in wood exist, including spade bits and self-feeding auger bits. Many types of specialised drill bits for boring clean holes in wood have been developed, including brad-point bits, Forstner bits and hole saws. Chipping ...

6. Mortiser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortiser

   For cutting small mortises, a normal drill bit can be used. However, for larger mortises, a common type of bit in modern mortisers is a Harry Watt square drill bit, in which a bit with a Reuleaux triangle cross section is allowed to "wobble" while it rotates within a square with rounded corners [citation needed]. This type of bit removes all ...

7. Hole saw - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hole_saw

   A hole saw (also styled holesaw), also known as a hole cutter, [1] is a saw blade of annular (ring) shape, whose annular kerf creates a hole in the workpiece without having to cut up the core material. It is used in a drill. Hole saws typically have a pilot drill bit (arbor) at their center to keep the saw teeth from walking. The fact that a ...
