A versatile, high-quality cutter made of high-grade steel for use on wood, plastic and soft metals. Ideal for shaping, hollowing, grooving, slotting, inlaying and making tapered holes in soft metals, plastics and woods especially on curved surfaces. Dremel accessories are truly among the finest products to maximize your woodworking experience. Built on a foundation of technology and innovation, Dremel accessories always deliver the most professional results.
- For best results, insert the accessory bit all the way into the tool and then back it out slightly before tightening down, this provides plenty of shank for the collet or chuck to hold onto the bit
- Secure objects to a stable surface while working
- Use the sides of the cutter (rather than the tip) for effective cutting, the tip cuts poorly and can break under pressure
- Use higher speeds for hard woods, slower speeds for metals and very slow speeds for plastics (to avoid melting at the point of contact)
- If chattering occurs, increase speed

I have really enjoyed the 5/16 in Round Spear-Shaped High Speed Cutter. If you need to get rid of a lot of excess wood or if you really need to do some drastic shaping this is an awesome bit. I haven’t had the opportunity to use the point yet but the round sides on this cutter have been very useful. The point is very small so I am not sure when I will find a time to use it. I alternated between this bit and the 5/16 inch Teardrop-Shaped High Speed Cutter. Both do an excellent job with Pine. I turned my Dremel up to 30000 rpms and went to town. It is a very easy bit to use. Just to be clear I had no issues at 15000 rpms. I got the hang of it and needed to remove more wood a little faster so that is why I primarily used this bit at 30000 rpms.
