This quarter inch tapered plug cutter works great! Very shard, makes great plugs, tapered very slightly, fits into the quarter inch holes for my guitar fretboards perfectly!

Perfect size plugs. Have already used it on a project with around 40 plugs. Still seems as sharp as new.Did take several days to arrive but that was disclosed when I ordered it.

It does cut plugs, but leaves a tougher surface than I would like

Good plug cutter for the price. I cut 48 plugs from Qtr sawn white oak and it worked like a charm, although I did pause halfway through for a minute to clean up and let the cutter cool. This makes a lot of chips. It has a shallow taper so the plugs may need to be around 5/8" long. A band saw or even a hand saw works better for releasing the plugs than just snapping them off.

Cuts smoothly and quickly. I used this to cover up some screws in an ipe fence. Why but ipe plugs when you can cut your own for a fraction of the price from your own scraps? Better match, better fit, and you'll have the plug cutter forever. Well, this plug cutter has four sharp teeth that make quick work of ipe. For those of you not familiar with this wood, it is much harder than oak, and is notorious for breaking bits and dulling saws. I cut about 50 plugs with this bit in a drill press and the last one went as smoothly as the first. The plugs were perfectly tapered, which allowed for a tight fit despite some variation in the hole size.Would buy again. Highly recommended.

This is a sturdy little unit and should hold up well w/ time. I read reviews in other similar products that were of poor quality and dulled or broke easily. This Fisch plug cutter is worth the slight extra cost. Functions exactly as described. Good product.

I am reviewing the 1/4" plug cutter. I used a new 1/4" Fisch wood bit to cut perfect holes. Unfortunately the taper on these is very slight, and the plug is only tight in the hole at the very deepest part of the plug. Therefore you have to cut a full plug, and lop off the small end of it to get a good plug my holes which were only 5/16" deep.For future projects I think I will use my Fisch 6mm drill bit and plug them with these. That way I can hammer them in with the mallet to get a tighter fit. Ive used premade wood plugs and they had a much more aggressive taper which I prefer.

The package arrived very quick! I’m using the bit to plug holes in a timber truss. The bit is nice and sharp and drills great in white ash hardwood. The only problem is that the item is supposed to be tapered although it does say less than 1 degree taper. When I made the plugs as deep as possible about 5/8” and held them end to end there is hardly a noticeable difference in size. The plugs do fit into a 3/4” hours le but not very snug. The holes I’m plugging are high in the air do it works but I would prefer they have more taper

Essentially a basic tool. A cut above regular plug cutters in terms of the results for your finished work (no gaps!), though regular cutters are of a different design. A fine cutter, but wondering why the name Fisch commands such a higher price than similar tapered cutters out there. The quality of the metal used? Hmmmm... not sure.

This cutter works quite well and releases the plugs unless you cut too deep. Have used it on redwood but not on hardwoods yet...

Fisch is not cheap but this is the break point for good quality. Cheaper ones do not cut cleanly.
