2. Drill bit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit

   The brad point drill bit has the outside corner of the cutting edges leading, so that it cuts the periphery of the hole before the inner parts of the cutting edges plane off the base of the hole. By cutting the periphery first, the lip maximizes the chance that the fibers can be cut cleanly, rather than having to be pulled messily from the timber.

3. Annular cutter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annular_cutter

   An annular cutter (also called a core drill, core cutter, broach cutter, trepanning drill, hole saw, or cup-type cutter) is a form of core drill used to create holes in metal. An annular cutter, named after the annulus shape , cuts only a groove at the periphery of the hole and leaves a solid core or slug at the center.

4. 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 ...

5. Machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machining

   For example, a workpiece may require a specific outside diameter. A lathe is a machine tool that can create that diameter by rotating a metal workpiece so that a cutting tool can cut metal away, creating a smooth, round surface matching the required diameter and surface finish. A drill can remove the metal in the shape of a cylindrical hole.

6. Drilling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling

   When cutting aluminum in particular, cutting fluid helps ensure a smooth and accurate hole while preventing the metal from grabbing the drill bit in the process of drilling the hole. When cutting brass, and other soft metals that can grab the drill bit and causes "chatter", a face of approx. 1-2 millimeters can be ground on the cutting edge to ...

7. Reamer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reamer

   A reamer is a type of rotary cutting tool used in metalworking. Precision reamers are designed to enlarge the size of a previously formed hole by a small amount but with a high degree of accuracy to leave smooth sides. There are also non-precision reamers which are used for more basic enlargement of holes or for removing burrs.
