CMT Orange Tools Tenon and Plug Cutter (⅜”-¾”)

JONATHAN’S HOT TAKE

These are by far the best plug cutters I’ve ever used.

Made from high-speed steel and featuring 4 cutting edges, these bits make plug-cutting in soft and hardwoods a breeze.

Other plug-cutting bits I’ve used get so hot they make smoke — and get dull super fast. But not these bad puppies.

Whether you want to hide screws with grain-matched plugs, or cut a round tenon at the end of a board, these CMT plug cutters will do the job fast.

Available in different sizes for ⅜”, ½”, ⅝”, and ¾” plugs.
