CMT Orange Tools Tenon and Plug Cutter (⅜”-¾”)
JONATHAN’S HOT TAKE
These are by far the best plug cutters I’ve ever used.
Made from high-speed steel and featuring 4 cutting edges, these bits make plug-cutting in soft and hardwoods a breeze.
Other plug-cutting bits I’ve used get so hot they make smoke — and get dull super fast. But not these bad puppies.
Whether you want to hide screws with grain-matched plugs, or cut a round tenon at the end of a board, these CMT plug cutters will do the job fast.
Available in different sizes for ⅜”, ½”, ⅝”, and ¾” plugs.
