    Just curious if anyone has ordered/used one of these bits. It seems like it wouldn't be that great for acrylic and fine detail work.

    Yikes!
    That thing scares me to death.

    The speed, torque and pressure required for those operations are all different- trying to combine them looks like a recipe for disaster.

    Yep, I love looking through the tool aisles seeing odd things I've never thought of. Some seem very practical, but this one seemed off to me. Glad you feel the same way.

    Double yikes on that one. One it would only be useful for thru holes. If you need to tap a hole that does not penetrate the material you'll have issues.

    The word 'slapdash' comes to mind... If you want your work to look like sh*t, that's the bit for you.

    I would rather just take it slow and do each step
