Forstner Bits

Grizzly Industrial Forstner Bits

Benjamin Forstner, a 19th century inventor and gunsmith, patented the revolutionary Forstner bit in 1886. This was unlike conventional wood boring bits and was designed to drill smooth-sided holes with flat bottoms. It was also ideal for boring holes at an angle.
