large hole saw
« on: May 07, 2014, 10:39:28 AM »
before I buy one..
Anybody have a 6.5 or 6.75" hole saw?
I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

have a water cooled diamond core saw for that...

needed to run some exhaust in the house...
100 yr old Tudor built like a Sherman tank!

in just drilling some holes in aluminum for speakers and possibly lights.

I used to cringe when I had to drill (2) 4-1/2" holes for furnace vents through the old farm houses in mendon & pittsford.  That old wood is no joke!

I almost severed an artery drilling our trailer for side access cover for RV plug couple years back.
Steel skin , plywood and steel studs... no consistency there.
 then again I was in the reverse Cloverfield position. So i most likely deserved it walking across my arm like it did.
Gotta respect a hole saw!
