I want to cut a hole that is 1-1/16" round in a mason jar lid. Will I be able to make it perfectly round with this tool?

The one I got I used for making eyelet holes in heavy tent canvas. The one I got would not come close to making a hole that large.

Yes it can, I am not sure at this moment but the hole looks 1/4 Inch or 6mm.

It all depends if your drill press has a JT3 taper or a Morse 2 Taper. Most 1/2" drill presses have a Morse 2 taper so you will need a arbor that will fit the Morse 2 taper in your press to the JT3 taper in the chuck. Great chuck!The Arbor is a Woodstock 2744 Hope this helps you.

close but they are actually 1/2 inch so no 7/16......how accurate does your circle have to be? You will need a very tight drill press and vice to carry out the work. Good luck!

Probably won't work. The round hole is 3/4 inch diameter on the cutter, but the retaining bolt fits into a 45 degree bevel about an additional 1/16th of an inch in diameter on its top to secure it. You better bite the bullet and buy the exact replacement part, assuming its available.

No I wouldn't use this tool. It would do the job but if you have an angle grinder with a cutoff blade that would be more appropriate. This tool would do the job with a small diameter cutoff bit but because it is an open blade safety would be an issue.

I'm not sure but it's possible. I use mine to wrangle plastic lids and some of those lids are square. It works great for plastic lids!

Absolutely, just need the right bit. The question would be what would the depth of the cut be and is the blade long enough to cut through what you want. If it is close, may be cut from both sides??????

I used it to cut through a 1/2 plywood sheet and had to give the hole saw a break half way between. Of course oak is harder so you might want to rest it more. Even though it takes time (maybe 20 minutes for one hole) it gives you a perfect circle instead of using a jig saw and having uneven edges. Best of luck!

No this can't make 1/2" holes. Without the sleeves it looks like the maximum would be 7/16ths.

One might try Forstner bits - they cut the outer edge of the hole first, leaving a nice clean hole. They also have a centering point.

Any size screw top lid for a glass jar that "pops". Lids that are approximately 1/4" deep. The size around the lid is does not matter, it's the depth of the lid, so a mason type jar it will not work on, but any jar that has the factory pressurized type lid it will work on. The 'hook' goes at the bottom of the lid, and you pry it up to release the vacuum seal. Hope that helps

It should open a Ball or any mason jar no different from a mayonnaise jar. No damage, unless you have painted the lid for some project or something. It's a "V" shape with teeth on one side only.

Just received one today and measured the diameter. It will fit in a 9/16" hole.

Cut out diameter is 11 1/8 inches. to be honest the likelihood of your cutout accuracy to be within 1/16 of in inch is pretty small. so its kind of irrelevant.

I don't see how the rod can be too big in diameter. You have a 1 1/16 nut at the top so the hole is probably 7/8 or so. Was the rod too thick to fit into the hole?

The drill comes with a decent number of cut-off ceramic discs. Given time, you would be able to cut an arbitrary length slot in sheet 5/32 (4mm) steel. Equally, if you've decent (tiny!) twist drills, and they're flooded with coolant, I don't see why you can't poke a hole in anything apart from tool steel - given time.
