I cut a lot of 1/4" dadoes in melamine. Will these chip out the melamine?

If your going to cut something like that. You need fine Tooth blades. I would say at least 48 teeth blades.

Absolutely... oil or cutting fluid is a must or the bits will overheat and dull very quick.

They will, but depending upon the curvature and thickness of the panel you may experience a chipped or rough edge. I'd recommend starting with a standard brad point bit and then follow it up with a step bit to get the proper size hole. A step bit should give a cleaner hole and won't be as aggressive. These spade bits are really more well suited for wood.

there will be no problem. You probably will have to cut them. They are standard.

Good afternoon, we have had some people in the past do this, and had great succses, however, if you were to do this, we would not be able to take any return. They are solid core, so if you chose to cut them, it SHOULD work. Thanks, Aaron

Actually, I wouldn't recommend that. The tips of my knives have already chipped. Just hand wash them and place them in a drawer.

Beth,The carbide and or diamond particle bits should be able to. Try them out on a piece of scrap material first. Be sure your material is held down so it won't move. Try a gentle touch first.You may want to "GOOGLE" DREMEL bits for cutting stone and hard wood...there maybe more robust bits for that purpose.What do you make?I hope this helps.Tom Lewis 602 214 4617

Mine is still new so I wouldn't expect chips, but do be wary about what you put on them. Make sure you oil/treat it before you use it, as it makes the boards so much easier to work with. If you don't, your meats might stick to the board, which is a pain. Also be mindful of how rough you cut. I've always used a glass cutting board so I'm very forceful with my cutting action. Doing this on the bamboo leaves it scarred with cuts and nicks. Just be mindful of the material and you shouldn't have any issues. They really are lovely and the sizes are fantastic!

I've never tried this. I have a dado set for that. But I imagine it would work if you needed a wider finger joint than 3/8". The diameter of the chipper would have to be exactly the same as the blades.

They will cut stainless but you have to go slow and use cutting oil or they will burn out rather quickly. I have only used them on thin stainless to re-size a previously drilled hole. Good luck!

It would depend on the tile but I would say you could trim what you can score. 1/4"-1/2" though I would account for more breakage when planing how much to order. On some tiles you may have to use this to score it and finish it with the tile snip. I used it on glass tile and all of my cuts were in the middle of the tile. I had to hand snap most of the tiles but it was easy after scoring the tile.

All die cuts will...some more than others...they'll bend over time...either way you'll have to replace them...great product

No! Buy the size you will need as cutting it would expose the tensile fibers inside which can be toxic if exposed or cut open. I believe these are only used for baking, anyway.

I have not had any chipout when cutting either hardwoods or plywood. If this is a concern for furniture building I would probably use a backing board so your good piece is not the last thing the set touches just to be extra safe.

Yes they will. I have used them for multiple things. You just need to make sure that you use a lot of icing when making both halves stick together.

I have cut silicone baking mats before with no issues. A simple pair of scissors will do the trick, but I use a straight-edge with a razor for a professional look.

I am not an expert on this matter, but here is how I used them. I was cutting holes in 1/4 in. ceramic tile. I did not use water to cool off the hole saw and had no trouble. I imagine that if you are cutting anything thicker and/or harder (like marble or stone) it would be good to use some water spray to keep the bit cool. Hope this helps.
