Even in times of industrial production, it happens that you have to "patch up" damaged or unsightly knots in the wood. Usually you do this by using a Forstner bit at the corresponding position create a hole and subsequently closed with a plug. In part, you can buy these plugs ready. It becomes difficult when the desired plug should be from a specific timber and with the same grain of the workpiece. Then you have to make the plugs themselves. Anyone who has tried this with a cheap plug cutter knows from experience that either the plugs does not fit in most cases into the hole or the plugs has so much play in the hole that you have to tilt a half bottle of glue into the hole so holds the pin. Invisible is differently!
Here the FAMAG-Plug Cutter comes into play. This is ground with the highest precision on modern CNC grinding machines and it matched by its tolerance precisely to the FAMAG Forstner bit. Thereby is always a tight fit of the plug in the hole and the glue consumption during this operation dwindles to a minimum. If the grain of the wood well-chosen and is the "patched" workpiece after insertion of the plug ground, the viewer have trouble recognizing the platelets in the workpiece. Small Tip: To increase the life of the plug cutter, it makes sense to work on the workpiece edge. Thereby, the cutting circle of the plug cutter is open laterally and the chips can be better dissipated. This reduces the friction and you will prolong the enjoyment of this great tool. In addition, the FAMAG-plug cutter is inside relief ground conical. This allows for an easy removal of the plug and on the other hand in this way the friction of the tool is reduced to a minimum.
