These discs are excellent for the small cutting jobs that are awkward to get to with larger discs or tools. They are ideally suited for small intricate jobs and also ideal for hobbyists and model making as they can be used for detailed cutting work and I found them ideally suited for the job that I purchased them for, excellent little piece of equipment

Purchased the tool with accessory pack and needed additional cutting disks. Done the job for me but went through a few to get it done, but it was a bearing cashing for a steering head so hardened steel.

I bought a pack of these expecting them to easily cut a brass thru-hull fitting on my boat. Bras being a soft metal one would expect it to be a non-issue. But they hardly made any progress through the fitting, battling to cut into it. Two disks later I still hadn't broken through while concentrating on one spot (the fitting is like a tube about 50mm diameter with 3-4mm wall thickness. I had maybe managed to make a 2 mm cut into the fitting. I also noticed the "roughess" of the disks had gone. I then used an old dremel 32mm standard cutting disk I still had from previous jobs, and after15 minutes had cut through the entire fitting. Haven't tried then on anything else, they are probably good for things like plastic etc.

metal plates cut the glass of wine or bear for my diy. I am happy its working, It takes a while but for small engraving machine and the price item is good. Not for professional work as metal plates are getting smaller fast. for one bottle usually one or two circles needed (in my case), which is not bad.

First time I used the discs whilst cutting into a thin wall tile the mandrel sheared off and flew across the garden. Had it hit me or a bystander it could have been quite nasty. The disc seems fine hence the 2 star rating but the mandrels are not fit for purpose.
