Forstner Bit for Dek Dots – 0.900″
This Forstner bit is custom ground to the specific diameter of 0.900″ needed to install our balusters, end caps, recessed lights, and DEK DOTs.
Our Forstner bit gives a snug fit and is designed to produce up to 300 holes in yellow pine lumber, less in composite materials, and even fewer holes in materials such as Ipe (Epay) and Mahogany. We advise having extra Bits on hand if you have a large project or are drilling a difficult material. The last thing you want to is to have to stop your project because you can’t drill any more holes.

Square/hexagon out the bottom so it doesn’t slip in the drill

C-clip comes loose while using it…plus the size hole it makes still required a little sanding to the the lights in smoothly. I am sure you could just tap them into the stock bore but I didn’t want to damage them.

Need a hole saw with adjustable drill tip. The forstner bit jumps a bit – sometimes wobbles the hole

Takes a bit of practice to get right but seems good quality
